The '''Late Campanian Event''' was a carbon cycle and climatic event that occurred during the Campanian Age of the Cretaceous Period.
== Timeline == The LCE has been variously estimated to have lasted for anywhere from 0.7 to 1.0 Myr (million years).<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Malarkodi |first=N. |last2=Orabi |first2=Orabi H |last3=Bhargava Sharma |first3=C.S. |last4=Chethan Kumar |first4=S. |last5=Panda |first5=Jagruti |date=1 May 2023 |title=Late Campanian-Maastrichtian in Pondicherry Area (Cauvery Basin) Southern India: Bioevents and Palaeoenvironmental Inferences from Planktonic Foraminifera |url=https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12594-023-2370-5 |journal=Journal of the Geological Society of India |language=en |volume=99 |issue=5 |pages=697–709 |doi=10.1007/s12594-023-2370-5 |issn=0974-6889 |access-date=16 October 2024 |via=Springer Link|url-access=subscription }}</ref> A recent study based on a sequence in southern India gave an estimate of about 0.8-0.9 Myr,<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Chenot |first=E. |last2=Pellenard |first2=P. |last3=Martinez |first3=M. |last4=Deconinck |first4=J.-F. |last5=Amiotte-Suchet |first5=P. |last6=Thibault |first6=N. |last7=Bruneau |first7=L. |last8=Cocquerez |first8=T. |last9=Laffont |first9=R. |last10=Pucéat |first10=E. |last11=Robaszynski |first11=F. |date=1 April 2016 |title=Clay mineralogical and geochemical expressions of the "Late Campanian Event" in the Aquitaine and Paris basins (France): Palaeoenvironmental implications |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0031018216000602 |journal=Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology |language=en |volume=447 |pages=42–52 |doi=10.1016/j.palaeo.2016.01.040 |access-date=16 October 2024 |via=Elsevier Science Direct|url-access=subscription }}</ref> while sections in Germany and the North Sea give a length of 1.0 Myr.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Perdiou |first=Anastasios |last2=Thibault |first2=Nicolas |last3=Anderskouv |first3=Kresten |last4=van Buchem |first4=Frans |last5=Arie Buijs |first5=Govert Joan |last6=Bjerrum |first6=Christian J. |date=23 December 2016 |title=Orbital calibration of the late Campanian carbon isotope event in the North Sea |url=https://www.lyellcollection.org/doi/10.1144/jgs2015-120 |journal=Journal of the Geological Society |language=en |volume=173 |issue=3 |pages=504–517 |doi=10.1144/jgs2015-120 |issn=0016-7649 |access-date=16 October 2024 |via=Lyell Collection Geological Society Publications}}</ref>
