Hi Paul - 

May I suggest looking for a large impact event as the trigger 
of those volcanic eruptions?
It has been known to happen.
good hunting,everyone -

Subject: [meteorite-list] Volcanoes, Not Impacts, Caused End Triassic Mass 
Extinction

Volcanic eruptions triggered dawn of the dinosaurs (Huge pulses of volcanic 
activity are likely to have played a key role in triggering the end Triassic 
mass extinction, which set the scene for the rise and age of the dinosaurs, new 
Oxford University research has found.)
