 Periodicity in Impact Cratering ? Part 2

Hi,

Yesterday, I posted the link to apaper that argued
against there being a periodicity in Phanerozoic
impact cratering.

On the other side of the argument, I found some
papers that argued for a periodicity in Phanerozoic
impact cratering. They include:

largest craters, stratigraphic impact signatures, and
extinction events over the past 250 Myr. Geosci.
