A study by researchers at the University of Michigan indicates that a global tsunami ravaged the earth after the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs landed.
Researchers hope their work can be used to unlock insight surrounding the geology of the Cretaceous period.
"This tsunami was strong enough to disturb and erode sediments in ocean basins halfway around the globe, leaving either a gap in the sedimentary records or a jumble of older sediments," said Molly Range, the study's lead researcher at the University of Michigan, in a statement.
