Aquatic Survival Refs?

["Jerry D. Harris" <jharris@dixie.edu>]

Hi All -

   OK, I'm racking my brains -- and my library -- trying to find references 
that SPECIFICALLY address the issue of terrestrial tetrapods with aquatic 
adaptations/paleoecologies (e.g., crocs, champsosaurs, amphibians, etc.) 
preferentially surviving the K/T extinction event over taxa that lack 
aquatic adaptations/paleoecologies.  I know that it's been mentioned, but 
I'm looking for papers that discuss it in some detail, ostensibly with a 
mechanism proposed.  I figued if anyone would be able to recall something 
I'm missing, it'd be someone on this list!  Thanks in advance for any help 
you can provide!
