Activism as education in and through the youth climate justice movement

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Young people worldwide are increasingly participating in a global movement for climate justice, yet to date, little research has examined how youth climate justice activists conceive of and experience activism as education. The present study used in‐depth, semi‐structured interviews with 16 US climate justice activists (aged 15–17) to address ...

The CUISINES Framework for Conducting Exoplanet Model Intercomparison Projects, Version 1.0

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
As JWST begins to return observations, it is more important than ever that exoplanet climate models can consistently and correctly predict the observability of exoplanets, retrieval of their data, and interpretation of planetary environments from that ...

‘Let's talk about the weather’: The activist curriculum and global climate change education

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Activist movements have garnered significant global attention on a range of sustainability issues, often involving collectives of citizens coming together. Invoked is the idea of citizens informed to act, emerging not from a common‐sense understanding of everyday life, but rather from a deep political understanding of the world—one that is ...

“The purpose of activism is to educate”: Young people's climate activism as and for education in the youth strike movement in England

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract By skipping school for their cause, young climate strikers repeatedly demonstrated their priorities in 2019 and 2020. They regularly chose to sacrifice a day of their formal education in favour of collective action. This study asks what we can learn from the reflections of former youth strikers.

A Secular Solar System Resonance that Disrupts the Dominant Cycle in Earth’s Orbital Eccentricity (g 2 − g 5): Implications for Astrochronology

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The planets’ gravitational interaction causes rhythmic changes in Earth’s orbital parameters (also called Milanković cycles), which have powerful applications in geology and astrochronology.

Cloudiness, the planetary radiation budget, and climate

open access: yes, 1978
Satellite planetary radiation budget measurements from the Nimbus 3 satellite for four semi-monthly periods along with a 29 month composite of measurements from six satellites are applied in a quantitative study to evaluate the effect of cloudiness on the planetary radiation budget.

Operationalising global education in teacher education and training: A model for contextualising terminology

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite a growing international consensus that students need to be provided with the type of education that effectively prepares them to engage in and contribute to their globalised world, and that teachers need to be appropriately trained to facilitate this teaching and learning, ‘global education’ continues to be hindered by a lack of ...

Habitability in 4D: Predicting the Climates of Earth Analogs across Rotation and Orbital Configurations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Earth-like planets in the circumstellar habitable zone (HZ) may have dramatically different climate outcomes depending on their spin–orbit parameters, altering their habitability for life as we know it.

Mid‐Domain Effect and Wooded Habitat Shape Mediterranean Reptile Communities

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
Analyzing a large number of reptiles observed across protected areas in Central Italy, we tested whether the mid‐domain effect explains hump‐shaped richness–elevation patterns. Species richness was best predicted by the combined influence of geometric constraints and woodland cover, revealing two contrasting species clusters and offering a robust ...

An Oxidation Gradient Straddling the Small Planet Radius Valley

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a population-level view of volatile gas species (H _2 , He, H _2 O, O _2 , CO, CO _2 , CH _4 ) distribution during the sub-Neptune to rocky planet transition, revealing in detail the dynamic nature of small planet atmospheric compositions. Our
