Thresholds: The metaphorical foundations of powerful knowledge

The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper advances a theoretical account of threshold concepts as metaphorical‐relational structures that reorganise meaning across contexts. Building on conceptual metaphor theory, we propose that threshold concepts can be understood as sites of schema‐level reorganisation: deep, embodied patterns of relational logic that scaffold abstract ...

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Skin Shade Discrimination Is Associated With Disordered Weight Control Behaviors in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Emerging evidence indicates that experiencing discrimination is associated with disordered eating. This study aimed to test the association between experiences of colorism (skin shade discrimination penalizing those with darker skin) and the prevalence of disordered weight control behaviors (DWCBs) in four Asian countries/regions ...

Increase in plant productivity in the tundra in Sweden is not related to increasing presence of warm‐adapted vascular plant species

Ecography, EarlyView.
Over the past decades, Arctic and alpine biomes have warmed faster than the global average. Substantial vegetation changes have been reported as a response to this warming, including increased productivity and the spread of warm‐adapted (thermophilic) species that are less resistant to grazing pressure into higher latitudes and altitudes.
