    Data are stored in separate .csv/Excel files. All information identifying the coders of this data has been removed.A changing Antarctica carries large implications for global climate systems and sea level rise. However, how climate change is altering Antarctica and how these changes and their relevance are communicated in news media remains unclear. This study explores how Antarctica, climate change, and sea level rise are reported in news media by conducting a content analysis of Antarctic climate coverage in seven U.S. newspapers between March 2007 and December 2022. Findings suggest that newspaper reporting of Antarctica’s changing climate is limited, and that framed coverage about Antarctica, climate change, and sea level rise primarily emphasizes scientific and ecological implications. Data used to conduct this study include: 1) A spreadsheet detailing article metadata for the 987 texts analyzed in this study. Details include the headline, outlet, author, data of publication, and ID number assigned to each article. 2) A spreadsheet containing the results of a content analysis of the 987 texts examined in this study. Analytical reliability was statistically assessed using a two-person inter-coder reliability process.Bruns, C.J.; Huffman, D.R.; Neff, P.D.; Timm, K.M.F.; Roop, H.A.. (2024).

    The Journey That Saved Curious George: The True Wartime Escape of Margret and H.A. Rey

    No full text
    Many years ago, two Jewish artists from Germany met in Brazil, started a business, fell in love, and got married. The Brazilians could not pronounce their German names, so the couple shortened them to H.A. and Margret Rey. While honeymooning in Europe, the Reys decided to stay in Paris so H.A. could pursue a career as a children\u27s book author and illustrator. During this time, H.A. started developing stories about a curious little monkey, influenced by the many monkeys he saw in Brazil. But Hitler\u27s forces delayed H.A.\u27s plans for the little monkey until he and Margret could safely escape Europe

    Out and All About: Fables for Old and Young

    No full text
    The title-page is missing in this book, and the only reference on the web is to a reprint of a book before 1923. At least this reference gives us an author. “Routledge” appears on the spine. I read only the first fable, “The Spider and the Ants,” which lasted some 20 pages and seemed to me to lose some of its focus along the way. The book is generously illustrated with partial-page black-and-white illustrations of various sizes along the way. As the beginning T of C shows, there are here some 31 fables on 256 pages before 18 pages of advertisements. Pretty cover and spine, including gold and black on red cloth.H.A. Pag

    BCIT integrated grid laboratory planning framework

    No full text
    This paper presents a planning framework for an educational training facility designed to incorporate exposure to equipment and scenarios seen in modern power systems, such as islanded microgrids, distributed renewable generation, and new information and communications technologies. The overall architecture is geared towards addressing skills and training gaps in undergraduate “power systems” education. The design principles make this laboratory safe, robust, scalable, modular, and expandable and can therefore also be considered for transport to remote sites for training or demonstration purposes. The framework is based on development and implementation of such a facility at the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) in the Vancouver area of Canada. It is the goal of the author to allow other institutes to reduce overall implementation time and to share and collaborate on educational materials and pedagogical results. The paper concludes with the presentation of a cost function which ranks, according to the author and BCIT's planning experience, the relative costs and benefits for such a facility in comparison with other possible approaches
