Cenomanian-Turonian

And all flesh died that moved on the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man. All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died. So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive. And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days. (Genesis 7:21-24) NKJV

Something that the astute of you may be wondering is: if Noah’s flood was a flood of water on the Earth, why are there the remains of so many fish in the fossil record? Why would fish be killed in a flood of water?

Fish need oxygen, they just don’t breathe the air. There’s normally enough Oxygen dissolved in water for fish to do gaseous exchange through their gills. There are however situations where there’s not enough Oxygen dissolved in water. If there’s a lot of organic matter decomposing it depletes the dissolved oxygen because it’s being used by the microbes as they break down the organic matter.

If all of the terrestrial life has been overcome by the flood waters and it remains that way for about a year then we would anticipate that the material would begin to decompose. As you may expect, since we’re dealing with the Word of God, that’s exactly what we find in the fossil record.

August 20th – Cenomanian-Turonian A world-wide anoxic extinction event above the Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary is a logical outcome of the worlds ecosystems decomposing in the waters of Noah’s flood.
