What is Generation of Deccan Trap Magmas about?

Deccan Trap magmas may have erupted through multiple centers, the most prominent of which may have been a shield volcano-like structure in the Western Ghats area. Radioisotope dating, magnetic chronology, and age constraints indicate that although the eruption started some 68 Ma, the bulk of lavas erupt at around 65-66 Ma. Maximum magma residence times were calculated in this study based on growth rates of "giant plagioclase" crystals in lavas
