Title | Methane gas concentration in soils and ground water, Carbon and Emery Counties, Utah 1995-2003 |
Subject | Methane; Soils; Groundwater |
Description | The release of methane gas from coal beds creates the potential for it to move into near-surface environments through natural and human-made pathways. To help ensure the safety of communities and determine the potential effects of development of coal-bed resources, methane gas concentrations in soils and ground water in Carbon and Emery Counties, Utah, were monitored from 1995 to 2003. A total of 420 samples were collected, which contained an average methane concentration of 2,740 parts per... |
