English as an additional language (EAL): Decolonising provision and practice

The Curriculum Journal, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 62-82, March 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper examines ways in which approaches to English as Additional Language (EAL) can be decolonised in schools. In an attempt to break traditional divides between academic research and pedagogical practice in this area, this article adopts a collaborative perspective, between an EAL advisory and support teacher and an academic member of ...

Constraints on Remnant Planetary Systems as a Function of Main-sequence Mass with HST/COS

The Astrophysical Journal
As the descendants of stars with masses less than 8 M _⊙ on the main sequence, white dwarfs provide a unique way to constrain planetary occurrence around intermediate-mass stars (spectral types BAF) that are otherwise difficult to measure with radial ...

Functional diversity of farmland bees across rural–urban landscapes in a tropical megacity

Ecological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 8, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Urbanization poses a major threat to biodiversity and food security, as expanding cities, especially in the Global South, increasingly compete with natural and agricultural lands. However, the impact of urban expansion on agricultural biodiversity in tropical regions is overlooked.

On the Orbit of the Binary Brown Dwarf Companion GL229 Ba and Bb

The Astronomical Journal
The companion GL229B was recently resolved by Xuan et al. as a tight binary of two brown dwarfs (Ba and Bb) through VLTI-GRAVITY interferometry and Very Large Telescope-CRIRES+ radial velocity (RV) measurements.

Photometric brown-dwarf classification [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
We have developed a method "photo-type" to identify and accurately classify L and T dwarfs, onto the standard system, from photometry alone. We combine SDSS, UKIDSS and WISE data and classify point sources by comparing the izYJHKW1W2 colours against template colours for quasars, stars, and brown dwarfs.

Histochemical indications for a chemically complex signal produced by the cervical gill slit gland of the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) possesses an exocrine gland associated with its false gill slit pigmentation pattern. The cervical gill slit gland is a compound tubuloalveolar gland that produces a holocrine secretion and displays maturational changes in size and secretory histology. While the morphology of the cervical gill slit gland

Reciprocal relationships between personality disorders and eating disorders in a prospective 17‐year follow‐up study

International Journal of Eating Disorders, Volume 55, Issue 12, Page 1753-1764, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective This study aimed to report the presence of categorical and dimensional personality disorders (PD) in adults with longstanding eating disorders (ED) over a period of 17 years and to investigate whether changes in PD predict changes in ED symptoms or vice versa.
