Eco-Lexicons in ELT: Analyzing Environmental Narratives through Critical Discourse Analysis by Pratolo Bambang Widi, Purwanti Eko, Humanika Eko Setyo, Bao Dat, Najmi Ali Hassan, Oktavianti Ikmi Nur, Surono Surono, Sari Dhian Marita

“…The use of evaluative adjectives, modal verbs, and passive constructions further reinforces a neoliberal environmental ideology that frames environmental problems as solvable through personal behavior. The findings suggest that while the textbook promotes environmental awareness, it limits students’ understanding of the broader, interconnected nature of environmental issues, potentially impeding the development of critical ecological literacy. …”

Gas Transport Arising from the Decomposition of Methane Hydrates in the Sediments of the Arctic Shelf to the Atmosphere: Numerical Modeling by Mariia Trimonova, Nikolay Baryshnikov, Sergey Turuntaev

“…At higher accumulation rates (10⁻⁶ kg/m³·s), gas diffusion has minimal impact on the saturation front movement, whereas at lower rates (10⁻⁸ kg/m³·s), diffusion significantly affects the front’s behavior. The study also established that the critical gas accumulation rate required to trigger sediment blowout in the hydrate decomposition zone is approximately 10⁻⁶ kg/m³·s, several orders of magnitude greater than typical bubble gas fluxes observed at the ocean surface. …”
