Pore Structure-Transport Relationships in Bowland Shale (2022)
Book Chapter
Pitcher, E. G., Fletcher, R. S., Large, D. J., & Rigby, S. P. (2023). Pore Structure-Transport Relationships in Bowland Shale. In The Bowland Shale Formation, UK: Processes and Resources. Geological Society. https://doi.org/10.1144/sp534-2021-97

Shale rocks are highly structurally and chemically heterogeneous, such that the pore structure-transport relationship is complex. Shales typically have porosity over many length-scales from the molecular up to macroscopic fractures. This work utilize... Read More about Pore Structure-Transport Relationships in Bowland Shale.

Use of carbon accumulation rates to estimate the duration of coal seams and the influence of atmospheric dust deposition on coal composition (2014)
Book Chapter
Large, D., & Marshall, C. (2015). Use of carbon accumulation rates to estimate the duration of coal seams and the influence of atmospheric dust deposition on coal composition. In D. Smith, R. Bailey, P. Burgess, & A. Fraser (Eds.), Strata and Time: Probing the Gaps in Our Understanding (303-315). Geological Society. https://doi.org/10.1144/SP404.15

Time contained within coal seams is most commonly estimated using a volumetric approach that fails to take into account processes of carbon accumulation and loss during peat formation and coalification. A more appropriate approach for estimating the...
