I have often wondered about the relationship between impacts and massive volcanism since Alvarez first hypothethized the K-T impact was what created Iceland back in the mid 70s before Chixulub was discovered. Such coincidences are impressive. Any Geophysicists around to help explain the connection {provided it exists}?
