Full Title: Paleoenvironmental and Tectonic Controls in Coal-Forming Basins of the United States
Editors: Paul C. Lyons and Charles L. Rice
A wealth of recent coal data and references to important literature in the field of coal-basin modeling in the United States, these ten papers summarize or synthesize work in various coal basins from New England to Alaska. This collection is valuable for coal geologists as well as for those interested in the evolution of coal basins, the origin of thick, high-quality coal beds, and the influence of paleoenvironment and paleotectonism on the geologic, paleogeographic, and spatial distribution of coal beds.
