Southern McArthur Basin Gravity p201381 Elevation
No full textMaintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: This Southern McArthur Basin Gravity p201381 Elevation is elevation data for the Southern McArthur Basin Gravity Survey 2013 (P201381) acquired under the project No. 201381 for the geological survey of NT. The grid has a cell size of 0.00735 degrees (approximately 800m). This grid contains the ground elevation values relative to the geoid for the Southern McArthur Basin Gravity Survey 2013 (P201381). It represents the vertical distance from a location on the Earth's surface to the geoid. The data are given in units of meters. The processed data are checked by GA geophysicists using standard methods for assessing quality to ensure that the final data are fit-for-purpose.Digital Elevation data record the terrain height variations from the processed point- or line-located data recorded during a geophysical survey.

'If people want to turn away from the subjec t matter, you have to give them a reason to turn back to it.' Interview with Jo-Anne McArthur, leading animal photojournalist
No full textJo-Anne McArthur (Ottawa, 1976) is an award-winning photographer, author, editor and public speaker who has dedicated her career to animal activism. She is the founder and president of the first Animal Photojournalism (APJ) agency, We Animals Media, which visually documents the global nature of animal suffering in multiple exploitation industries, including factory farming and animal agriculture. McArthur is the author of We Animals (2014), Captive (2017) and HIDDEN: Animals in the Anthropocene (2020), and her work has also been appeared in National Geographic, National Geographic Traveller, The Washington Post and The Guardian, among other publications and media. Her commitment and dedication to her craft were portrayed in Liz Marshall's highly acclaimed documentary, The Ghosts in Our Machine
The development of social attributions at the intergroup levela neo-Piagetian approach
No full textThe author, G. Bruce McArthur, died before he could defend his thesis. However, this version of his thesis is the one that he intended to defend at his oral examination. The thesis was depisted in the Archives with the hope that others who are interested in this field of study may benefit from the findings of Mr. McArthur's study

Representations of Scottish masculinity and femininity in Rob Roy (Michael Caton-Jones, 1995), Braveheart (Mel Gibson, 1995) and Brave (Brenda Chapman, Mark Andrews, 2012)
No full textIn 1982, Scottish author Colin McArthur coordinated a collection of texts whose purpose was to analyze the representation of his country on screen. Within the many forms of narrative portrayals analyzed, he suggested that the depiction of Scotland often relied on two different, but complementary myths: tartanry and kailyard.The struggles of the noble Highland warriors against the more or less modern and corrupt influences of generally (predominantly, one is tempted to add) English invaders i..
McArthur Basin, NT, 1978 (P449), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled
No full textMaintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: This McArthur Basin, NT, 1978 (P449), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled is an airborne-derived radiometric data for the McArthur Basin, NT, 1978. The data was acquired under the project No. 449 for the geological survey of NT. A total of 51579 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing of 3000m were acquired during this survey. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data (Milligan et al., 2009). This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS. Noise-adjusted singular value decomposition (NASVD) has been applied to the data. NASVD is a spectral component analysis procedure for the removal of noise from gamma-ray spectra. Details of the specifications of individual airborne surveys can be found in the Fourteenth Edition of the Index of Airborne Geophysical Surveys (Percival, 2014). This Index is also available online at http://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/79134.

Index of airborne geophysical surveys (Fourteenth Edition).The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.<br/> This McArthur Basin, NT, 1978 (P449), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled were acquired in 1978 by the NT Government, and consisted of 51579 line-kilometres of data at 3000m line spacing and 150m terrain clearance.

In the last decade, we have undertaken the study of this molecule in the central nervous system (CNS), focusing particularly on the primary interface between the peripheral body and CNS: the blood-brain barrier. In this review, we provide an overview of the role of this molecule in the brain, with a particular emphasis on its functions in the endothelium of the blood-brain barrier, and the protective actions the molecule may exert in neuroinflammatory, neurovascular and metabolic disease. We focus on the possible new therapeutic avenues opened up by an increased understanding of the role of annexin A1 in the CNS vasculature, and its potential for repairing blood-brain barrier damage in disease and aging.SM is supported by Alzheimer’s Research UK (Grant# ARUK-PPG2016B-6) and
