ABSTRACT
Flood
basins adjacent to the channelbelts accumulated
predominantly muddy sediment, sandy crevasse-splay deposits, and, locally, peat. Peat
accumulated in belts that roughly correspond to the lower part of the coastal plain and
generally paralleled the shoreline. The geometries of individual, thick bodies of coal
vary greatly. The dynamics of peat accumulation was controlled primarily by the rate of
relative sea level rise.
