On the fundamental difference between coal rank and coal type
Jennifer M.K. O'Keefe,Achim Bechtel,Kimon Christanis,Shifeng Dai,William A. DiMichele,Cortland F. Eble,Joan Esterle,Maria Mastalerz,Anne Raymond,Bruno Valentim,Nicola J. Wagner,Colin R. Ward,James C. Hower +12 more
TL;DR: The coal type refers solely to coals' depositional origin and the maceral-mineral admixture resulting from that origin, whereas coal rank refers to the changes in geochemistry and resultant changes in reflectance caused by increasing thermal maturity of the coal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wetland-Dryland Vegetational Dynamics in the Pennsylvanian Ice Age Tropics
TL;DR: Lower-diversity worlds such as the late Paleozoic, with a rich spectrum of environmental variations, offer insights into relationships between organisms and environments that expand understanding of these phenomena and enlarge their sense of what is possible or probable as the authors look to the future.

Pennsylvanian 'fossil forests' in growth position (T0 assemblages): origin, taphonomic bias and palaeoecological insights
TL;DR: Fossil forests, buried in growth position in a geological instant (T 0 assemblages) are far more abundant in Pennsylvanian successions than in any other part of the geological record as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a range of new fluvial planform and architectural styles came to prominence, including channelled-and island-braided systems, meandering and anabranching systems, and stable muddy floodplains.

Landscape gradients and patchiness in riparian vegetation on a Middle Pennsylvanian braided-river plain prone to flood disturbance (Nýřany Member, Central and Western Bohemian Basin, Czech Republic)
TL;DR: The spatial heterogeneity and community ecology of riparian vegetation preserved in fluvial deposits of the upper Asturian to middle (?) Cantabrian (upper Moscovian) Nýřany Member, Central and Western Bohemian Basin, Czech Republic is reconstructed in this article.
