Source and Availability of Nutrients to Microbial Communities in a Biogenic Coal Bed Methane System

Despite the importance of coalbed methane (CBM) as a natural gas resource, little is known about the microbial communities responsible for production of biogenic CBM (~20% of all CBM gas). It is thought that coal-associated microbial communities are limited by nutrients, such as nitrogen or phosphat...
