Hurricane areas of the world (UEB uncontracted)
by RnibThis is a multi-page image of Hurricane areas of the world, set on two pages. There are locator dots shown, which will be at the top left of each page when the images are the right way up. Key to hurricane areas of the world: This page shows the key to the diagram of hurricane areas of the world. On the left hand side of the page is a list of abbreviations for the continents of the world, listed in alphabetical order. In the middle of the page, running from top to bottom, is a line dividing the two parts of the key from each other. On the right hand side of the page are examples of the symbols, lines and textures (colours) used on the diagram. They are displayed in a column in alphabetical order with descriptive labels to the right. Hurricane areas of the world: This page shows a map of the world bounded by a dashed line image border. The land is shown by the textured areas of the map. On the left of the page are, North and South America, in the centre Europe, and on the right Asia and Australia. The heavy dashed line of the Equator runs horizontally across the middle of the page. The hurricanes and their directions are shown on the map as lines with arrowheads, which curve clockwise when up the page from the Equator and anti-clockwise when down the page. There are three of them just above the line of the Equator on the left of the page. On the right of the page, there are six above the Equator and six below.
Meiosis Phase One (UEB Uncontracted)
by RnibThese pages show late interphase before meiosis, and five stages of meiosis phase one. There is a locator dot shown on each page, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. Meiosis is cell replication where a cell divides to produce four non-identical gametes, each with only one set of chromosomes instead of the usual two sets found in all other cells.Late interphase before meiosis. This page shows a cell immediately before meiosis starts. The cell is a large rounded shape in the centre of the page. Its nucleus fills the bottom of the cell and two centrioles are in the top of the cell. The twenty three pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus have replicated to form a mass of chromatids (double chromosomes) which are tightly coiled. Note the size of the nucleus and the centrioles in relation to the overall size of the cell are greatly enlarged for clarity. Only some of the chromatin is shown, also for clarity. Meiosis - stage one, early prophase I. This page shows the start of meiosis. The cell is in the centre of the page. In the top of the cell the centrioles to the left and right have the mitotic spindle growing between them. The nucleus shows two chromatids - the double chromosomes. The ends of the chromosomes of the chromatids are crossed in two places, to the top and bottom of the pair. In reality in humans there would be twenty three pairs of chromatids.Meiosis - stage one, late prophase I. This page shows chromatids after crossover. The cell is in the centre of the page. In the top of the cell the centrioles to the left and right have the mitotic spindle growing between them. The nucleus shows two chromatids - the double chromosomes. The ends of the chromosomes of the chromatids have swapped DNA coding where they were crossed. The ends to the top centre of the chromatids have swapped and the ends of the other pair of chromosomes to the bottom centre have also swapped.Meiosis - stage two, metaphase I. This page shows the completed mitotic spindle with a centriole to the left and right. The nuclear envelope has disappeared. The chromatids have attached themselves side by side to the centre of the spindle on the central microtubule by their centromeres in the centre of the image. For clarity other chromatids are not shown so the microtubule to the top and bottom of the image appears empty. In reality there would be many more pairs of chromatids and microtubules.Meiosis - stage three, anaphase I. This page shows the centromeres have separated. The microtubules of the spindle are retracting to the left and right. Each chromatid of the pair of chromosomes are migrating to opposite ends of the spindle to the left and right.Meiosis - stage four, telophase I. This page shows centrioles to the left and to the right. One chromatid is in the left and one chromatid is in the right of the cell. To the top and bottom centre of the cell the plasma membrane is pinching in and starting to divide the cytoplasm.

Periodic table (Large Print - colour)
by RnibThis is a multi-page document showing the periodic table of chemical elements, and on the Large Print version, a key to the table. The LP key is on the first page. The table is in five parts, which can be joined together. There is a locator dot and title shown on each page. These will be at the top left of the page when it is the correct way up. This is a complex diagram and blind and partially sighted people may find it helpful to have some sighted assistance at first viewing. The table shows element categories (in large print only), groups (families) and periods, plus the atomic number, the chemical symbol and atomic weight for each element. Key to Large Print periodic table - The key to the table shows the colours used to represent the element categories, and is arranged in two columns. In each column, the colour samples are to the left with their names to the right. The categories are not shown on the tactile version of the table, as there is insufficient space in the cells for textures. It is recommended that you download the Periodic table overview from the ImageShare site, as this shows the element categories in tactile format. Periodic tabl The table comprises cells arranged in columns and rows. A cell shows the atomic number, chemical symbol and atomic weight for an element. In the Large Print version of the table, the cell colour relates to the element category as shown on the key. The vertical columns show the groups (or families) of elements. The groups are numbered across the top of the page. A horizontal row in the table is a period. The periods are numbered on the left side of the first page of the table. In this arrangement of the periodic table, the lanthanoids and actinoids (periods 6 to 7, known as the f-block) are separated from the other elements and are shown stretching across the bottom of the page. The f-block on pages 3, 4 and 5 has no periodic numbers marked on the page. Joining the page - To allow space for braille labelling, this table has been split into five sections on separate pages. Join them to each other in number order, from left to right, trimming the periodic numbers as required. Pages 1 and 5 are A4 size and in portrait orientation. Pages 2 to 4 are A3 size and in landscape orientation. Trim the pages to allow joining, using the light, vertical dashed grid lines as guides. When joining the tactile pages, care should be taken to avoid covering any part of the table.

Translation
by RnibThis diagram shows three triangles; the original triangle and its translation in two different ways to two new positions. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. There is a graph with all four quadrants showing, and the x and y axes ranging from -3 to 3. The x and the y axes intersect at the origin marked by an O. Axes values are positive to the right and to the top of the diagram. Axes values are negative to the left and to the bottom of the diagram. Not all axis division marks are labelled. Some of the braille uses maths code notation. When a shape is translated, it stays the same shape and orientation; only its position changes. The original triangle is in the top left quadrant. There is a translation to the right of a value of 4, and then a translation down of a value of 1. There is also a second translation, right to a value of 4, and then down to a value of 4. The movement of the first triangle is indicated by a heavy dashed line.
