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

British 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 ...

Electron scale structures and magnetic reconnection signatures in the turbulent magnetosheath

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
Collisionless space plasma turbulence can generate reconnecting thin current sheets as suggested by recent results of numerical magnetohydrodynamic simulations.

Indicators of Reconnection Processes and Transition to Global Chaos in Nontwist Maps

, 1998
Reconnection processes of twin-chains are systematically studied in the quadratic twist map. By using the reversibility and symmetry of the mapping, the location of the indicator points is theoretically determined in the phase space. The indicator points

The impact of trauma‐informed teacher education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study, two cohorts of university students in an employment‐based teacher education course undertook trauma‐informed education training embedded within their coursework to enhance their preparedness to work with diverse learners and their self‐efficacy for trauma‐informed teaching. With increased calls for teacher preparation programmes

Comparison of Magnetospheric Multiscale ion jet signatures with predicted reconnection site locations at the magnetopause

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
Magnetic reconnection at the Earth's magnetopause is the primary process by which solar wind plasma and energy gains access to the magnetosphere. One indication that magnetic reconnection is occurring is the observation of accelerated plasma as a jet ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

A Partial Eruption of a Sigmoid Filament in the Small Dipole Active Region 12734

Universe
We present a detailed analysis of a partial eruption of a sigmoid filament lying along the polarity inversion line (PIL) of the small active region (AR) NOAA 12734 (with an area of 1.44 ×103 square megameters).

Reconnection of Colliding Cosmic Strings

, 2005
For vortex strings in the Abelian Higgs model and D-strings in superstring theory, both of which can be regarded as cosmic strings, we give analytical study of reconnection (recombination, inter-commutation) when they collide, by using effective field ...

Tracing the origins and evolution of nymphalid butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the Atlantic Forest

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding the relative roles of diversification and dispersal is key to explaining large‐scale biogeographical patterns. Although both processes are known to shape biodiversity, their relative contributions remain understudied for many organisms. Here, we examine how these processes have jointly contributed to the exceptional diversity and endemism
