Contains last occurrences generated by a spike in extinction rate at the K/Pg boundary and an influence of Deccan volcanism before that. Relative influence of volcanism ranges from 0% (none), 10 % (weak), 20% (intermediate), 30 % (strong) to 40% (very strong). Location of Deccan volcanism is based on the extinction interval from Tobin (2017), fig. 5, transformed into time assuming a constant deposition rate. The last occurrences were generated based on the convolution procedure described in Hohmann (2018) and a rate of fossil occurrences of 40 fossils per Myr.

A list with five entries, each named after the intensity of the early extinction pulse described in Hohmann (in preparation). Each of these entries contains three vectors: 'val' contains the last occurrences per Myr at the ages in 'age', and 'parameters' contains the parameters used to create the pattern of last occurrences.
