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

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...
