But researchers' interest has mainly focused on verbal and numerical modes of communication, and the focus on the visual mode has been very limited. This paper contributes to filling this gap through an explorative analysis of how the visual artefacts are used with the text (verbal and numerical) in utilities' corporate sustainability reports. Results show that visual artefacts are more used for captivating readers' or viewers' attention, spatializing and materializing concepts than infiltrating meanings. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/AEI/PID2020-113905GB-I00 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S56-23R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 3.8 2023 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES 129 / 358 = 0.36 2023 Q2 T2 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES 53 / 182 = 0.291 2023 Q2 T1 ENERGY & FUELS 89 / 171 = 0.52 2023 Q3 T2 0.889 2023 Law 2023 Q1 Sociology and Political Science 2023 Q1 Development 2023 Q1 Business and International Management 2023 Q1 Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law 2023 Q2 Transportation 2023 Q2 Economics and Econometrics 2023 Q2 6.8 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Bachiller, Patricia Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-6661-1128 4002 230 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
