Causes of River Pollution for Practice Question (tactile)
by RnibThis is a tactile diagram for GCSE level students. The diagram consists of two pages: A key followed by a map. The key contains all relevant tactile symbols, and labels included on the map. The map shows rivers running through Germany, Luxembourg, Netherlands and Switzerland. Countries and rivers are labelled, as well as various factors contributing to pollution. The countries are shown as a heavy texture, with thick lines plotting the river. A scale and North symbol are also included.
Causes of the Greenhouse Effect (UEB contracted)
by RnibThis page shows a diagram showing how the greenhouse effect works. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The image is surrounded by an image border. The sun is in the top left of the diagram. It shines down on the Earth and warms the soil shown by heavy arrows. To the right heat rises but most is trapped and reflected back to earth. At the top centre of the diagram two arrows show some heat escaping. In the bottom centre of the diagram is a factory. It has two windows and a tall chimney with smoke coming out. The smoke joins the clouds. To the right is a side view of a car producing smoke as its engine burns fossil fuel. The smoke adds to the clouds which are getting thicker. On the right of the diagram heat is rising again but the greenhouse gases have trapped even more heat so the Earth warms up even more.

Cave, Arch and Stack Formation (UEB contracted)
by RnibThis is an image of an eroded headland. An image border surrounds the image. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The land goes across the middle of the page from the left of the page towards the right. The sea fills the bottom of the page. On the left there is a large vertical crack in the cliff face. This is where the force of the sea and waves is opening a fissure in a weakness in the rock. To the right is another crack which has been eroded into a cave at sea level. In the centre of the image is an arch. This is where the sea has eroded a cave so deep it has broken right through the headland. To the right is where there used to be a second arch but it has been eroded so much it has collapsed. Its original position is shown by a dotted line. All that is left is on the right, a vertical stack of rock. To the right of the stack is a stump all that is left of a heavily eroded stack.

Chalk and Land Use (large print)
by RnibThis is a labelled cross section side view of a limestone escarpment and an area of land with clay soil. It shows how the land is used by humans. A dashed line image border surrounds the diagram. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The limestone escarpment can be found in the centre of the page, sloping down to the bottom left corner. It has been tilted by geological forces and has a pattern of horizontal and vertical cracks. Rainwater has leached into the rock and emerges as two springs represented by heavy dashed lines. There is one on the centre left of the page and one at the base of the escarpment in the bottom right. To the right of the spring at the base of the escarpment there is a house shape representing a settlement. At the top of the escarpment, in the centre of the page, there is a chalk quarry and to the right of this an area of cereal crops and a sheep.

Changes in Farming (large print)
by RnibThis page shows two graphs. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The top graph has two data lines. A dashed line (blue on large print) showing the increase in use of tractors and a solid line (red on large print) showing the decrease in farm workers being employed. The numbers are indicated on the Y-axis to the left. The X-axis shows time in years with marks for every ten years and labelled every twenty years. There are thin vertical dashed lines every ten years. The bottom graph has two data lines. A dashed line (blue on large print) showing the increase in the amount of fertiliser used and a solid line (red on large print) showing the increase in wheat yield. The numbers are indicated on the Y-axis to the left. The X-axis shows time in years with marks for every ten years and labelled every twenty years.

Chemical Weathering of Limestone (tactile)
by RnibThis is a tactile diagram for GCSE level students. The diagram consists of two pages: a key and a cross section diagram of a river flowing underground. Users start in the top right of the diagram. A textured section shows the softening limestone, and users follow the tactile river into a cave, where sections of rock are labelled, as well as stalacmites and stalagtites.

Chemical Weathering - Pavement and Cave (large print)
by RnibThis is a two-page document showing how the action of acidic rain causes weathering and degradation of limestone rock. Dashed line image borders surround the diagrams. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The first page is a labelled cross section diagram of limestone rock with water running through a cave and an area of limestone pavement on the surface of the rock. The second page shows an enlarged view of the limestone pavement in plan and cross section views. Page 1: On this page the limestone rock is shown in cross section. The rock occupies the bottom half of the page. In the centre right of the image is a stream of acidic water, represented by a heavy dashed line, flowing to the left down a hill. It falls into the mouth of a swallow hole to a cave caused by the water dissolving away the rock it flows through. It continues to the left and eventually streams out of the rock at the bottom left of the page. There are stony spikes on the roof and floor of the cave: a stalactite and stalagmite made by dripping water depositing its dissolved limestone. The surface of the rocky area runs across the centre of the page. It has been eroded by the action of acidic water and has vertical cracks going down into the rock, called joints and grykes. Page 2: There are two diagrams on this page. At the top of the page there is a plan view of the limestone pavement shown on page one. The pavement is criss-crossed by a network of cracks in a pattern of squares, giving the surface of the rock the appearance of street pavement. The square sections are called clints. At the bottom of the page the pavement is shown in a cross section side view. The deep cracks are joints and the shallower cracks are grykes.

There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. Each image is surrounded by an image border. The image in the top of the page shows the top of a cliff at the top and sea at the bottom and right of the image. In the centre is a mass of cliff that has slumped down and out into the sea. The image in the bottom of the page shows the face of the cliff and sea at the bottom of the image. In the centre bottom the mass of cliff that has slumped down and out into the sea. It still has a patch of grass on it from the cliff top.

Cliff Erosion at Southerndown, South Wales (tactile)
by RnibThis is a tactile diagram for GCSE level students. The diagram consists of two pages: a key, and a map showing the cliff erosion. The key includes textures for the sea, and types of earth, as well as some included landmarks and features. The map shows a section of coastline, with the sea as a texture. Layers of different texture indicate soil types, and arrows at the right and bottom describe the differing coastline.
Climate Graph - Continental: Perm, Russia (UEB contracted)
by RnibThis is a graph showing temperature and precipitation over the period of a year in Perm. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. There are vertical bars indicating average monthly rainfall and a thick dashed line going across the page showing the average monthly temperature. On the left of the page is a vertical scale marked in degrees Centigrade starting from zero at the bottom. It is marked at every five degrees and labelled at every ten degrees. Running right across the page are fine horizontal grid lines. The thick dashed line representing the temperature can be found at the bottom left of the page sloping up and down to right. Across the bottom of the page are twelve labelled vertical bars showing the rainfall for each month of the year, starting with January on the left. To allow sufficient space, the braille labels are uncapitalised. At the far right of the page is a vertical scale of precipitation in millimetres, starting with zero at the bottom. This is marked every 25 mm and labelled every 50 mm.
