![]() Unlike its close relative the hawksbill turtle, the green turtle's snout is very short and its beak is unhooked. ![]() Īnatomically, a few characteristics distinguish the green turtle from the other members of its family. mydas having weighed 395 kg (871 lb) and measured 153 cm (60 in) in carapace length. Exceptional specimens can weigh 315 kg (694 lb) or even more, with the largest known C. The average weight of mature individuals is 68–190 kg (150–419 lb) and the average carapace length is 78–112 cm (31–44 in). Adult green turtles grow to 1.5 metres (5 ft) long. mydas has a dorsoventrally flattened body, a beaked head at the end of a short neck, and paddle-like arms well-adapted for swimming. Its appearance is that of a typical sea turtle. In the Hawaiian language it is called honu, and it is locally known as a symbol of good luck and longevity. ![]() As a species found worldwide, the green turtle has many local names. Its name comes from the greenish color of the turtles' fat, which is only found in a layer between their inner organs and their shell. The species' common name does not derive from any particular green external coloration of the turtle. agassizi remains an invalid junior synonym of C. This subdivision was later determined to be invalid and all species members were then designated Chelonia mydas. mydas agassizi referred only to the Pacific population known as the Galápagos green turtle. mydas mydas referred to the originally described population, while C. These two "species" were then united as Chelonia mydas and populations were given subspecies status: C. mydas, and thus taxonomically not a separate species. ![]() Later research determined Bocourt's "black sea turtle" was not genetically distinct from C. This "species" was referred to as the "black sea turtle". In 1868, Marie Firmin Bocourt named a particular species of sea turtle Chelonia agassizii, in honor of Swiss-American zoologist Louis Agassiz. The species was originally described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae as Testudo mydas. Herbivorous Chelonia warranted their status as a genus, while Natator (flatback) was further removed from the other genera than previously believed. The carnivorous Eretmochelys (hawksbill), Caretta (loggerhead) and Lepidochelys (ridley) were assigned to the tribe Carettini. A 1993 study clarified the status of genus Chelonia with respect to the other marine turtles. The green sea turtle is a member of the tribe Cheloniini. In addition, real estate development often causes habitat loss by eliminating nesting beaches. Many turtles die after being caught in fishing nets. Pollution indirectly harms turtles at both population and individual scales. In some countries, turtles and their eggs are still hunted for food. However, turtles are still in danger due to human activity. In addition, many countries have laws and ordinances to protect nesting areas. It is illegal to collect, harm, or kill them. mydas is listed as endangered by the IUCN and CITES and is protected from exploitation in most countries. Those that reach maturity may live to 90 years in the wild. Later, hatchlings emerge, and scramble into the water. Females crawl out on beaches, dig nests, and lay eggs during the night. Many islands worldwide are known as Turtle Island due to green sea turtles nesting on their beaches. Like other sea turtles, green sea turtles migrate long distances between feeding grounds and hatching beaches. The turtles bite off the tips of the blades of seagrass, which keeps the grass healthy. The adults usually inhabit shallow lagoons, feeding mostly on various species of seagrasses. Unlike other members of its family, such as the hawksbill sea turtle, C. It is usually lightly colored, although in the eastern Pacific populations, parts of the carapace can be almost black. mydas is covered by a large, teardrop-shaped carapace it has a pair of large, paddle-like flippers. The common name refers to the usually green fat found beneath its carapace, not to the color of its carapace, which is olive to black. Its range extends throughout tropical and subtropical seas around the world, with two distinct populations in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, but it is also found in the Indian Ocean. It is the only species in the genus Chelonia. The green sea turtle ( Chelonia mydas), also known as the green turtle, black (sea) turtle or Pacific green turtle, is a species of large sea turtle of the family Cheloniidae.

![]() Based on the origins of the two manuscripts, scholars place Rufillus in the late-twelfth century Premonstratensian abbey of Weissenau near Ravensburg in the South of Germany (get up to speed on Rufillus in this article by Solange Michon a useful enumeration of manuscripts from Weissenau is found here). Helpfully, Rufillus identifies himself by providing his name: in the Cologny manuscript he painted it in white above his brush (accompanied by “Fr.” for frater, monk), while in the crowded Amiens initial the name is written right above the decorative letter with pen and ink. Rufillus inside a letter R (Cologny, Fondation Martin Bodmer, Cod. This post explores what we can learn from the two self-portraits of a monk who is a bit of a showoff – and who is not shy about using the selfie-stick. ![]() Selfies are not frequently encountered in medieval manuscripts, which makes the Rufillus case quite special, given that it entails not one but two “snapshots” of the same person. ![]() Here, Rufillus created a more roomy environment, painting himself inside a very large letter R at the outset of the passion of St Martin of Tours (d. Bodmer 127, a collection of saints’ lives kept in the Fondation Martin Bodmer in the Swiss city of Cologny (The Passionary of Weissenau, Figure 2). Rufillus inhabiting a letter D (Amiens, Bibliothèque municipale, Lescalopier 30, fol. Why he shows himself here, when the Hexaemeron is about to discuss the creation of plants and material forms, is unclear. The text discusses the six days of the Creation and Rufillus displays himself inside a green – and rather confined – initial letter D at the outset of the section on the Third Day. One is found in a copy of Ambrose’s Hexaemeron kept in the Bibliothèque municipale in Amiens as MS Lescalopier 30 (Figure 1). That earlier blog post includes two intriguing selfies made by the same person, a monk who calls himself Rufillus. Other medieval examples of selfies are those by Matthew Paris, the thirteenth-century monk from St Albans, painted in the lower margin of his Historia Anglorum (see here). They did so to identify themselves as the creator of a miniature or historiated initial, or even to exhibit their accomplishments as businessmen, as the early-sixteenth-century commercial illustrator Nicolaus Bertschy appears to do. As shown in a previous post on medieval selfies, some decorators made self-portraits in manuscripts, showing that the practice predates print – albeit without the use of a camera. Selfies are by no means an exclusively modern phenomenon. ![]() High pressure with a number such as 25 means 1025 mb.Ī low pressure center which refers to a migratory frontal cyclone of center and higher latitudes. Low pressure with a number such as 99 means 999 mb and with 03 means 1003 mb. Low & High Pressure Systems and Miscellaneous Key Terms Ahead of a typical warm front in the northern hemisphere, winds are from the southeast and behind the front winds will shift to the southwest. The gradients of temperature and moisture are maximized in the frontal zone. The leading edge of a relatively warmer surface air mass which separates two distinctly different air masses. These processes lead to the dissipation of the front in which there is no gradient in temperature and moisture.Īn elongated area of relatively high pressure that is typically associated with a anti-cyclonic wind shift.Ī front that has not moved appreciably from its previous analyzed position.Īn elongated area of relatively low pressure that is typically associated with a cyclonic wind shift. When a warm front overtakes a cold front or quasi-stationary front the process is termed a warm front occlusion. The union of two fronts, formed as a cold front overtakes a warm front or quasi-stationary front refers to a cold front occlusion. The weakening or dissipation of a front occurs when two adjacent air masses lose contrasting properties such as the density and temperature. It occurs most frequently over continental land areas such as over the Eastern US when the air mass moves out over the ocean. The formation of a front occurs when two adjacent air masses with different densities and temperatures meet and strengthen the discontinuity between the air masses. In the northern hemisphere winds ahead of the front will be southwest and shift into the northwest with frontal passage. The leading edge of a relatively colder air mass which separates two air masses in which the gradients of temperature and moisture are maximized.

In terms of the visuals and audio, Outlast was really good, and its sequel is even better. ![]() Moving beyond the story, we have the game's presentation and gameplay mechanics. I personally took it as less of an attack on a particular faith than a look at how religion - any religion - can go wrong and become corrupted, especially when people often put their faith so blindly into it without perhaps asking the right questions about it and themselves along the way. As such, there were a lot of references that will no doubt ruffle features, but feel entrenched in reality just enough to be plausible and unsettling. This ties into our character's backstory later in the game, with callbacks to a Catholic school upbringing (which was my own elementary through high school upbringing). Upside down crosses, scattered scraps of documents referring to the gospel of a deranged man whose word is almost treated like the word of God. There's some redneck meets warmed religious faith tones that serve as the primary motivation for the antagonists. ![]() The story is going to rub some people the wrong way. The first title was an unsettling one that pulled very few punches, and Outlast 2 follows the same basic path - now with better graphics! The end result is an even more intense experience. Outlast 2 goes for a lot of shock value with its loud sounds, use of language, depictions of torture and more. There is a warning at the start of the game, and it is an apt one. Enter your trusty camera with its hued night vision that allows you to see the horrors around you.Īnd horrors you will find. Perhaps a hint of movement in the inky shadows, but by and large the blacks and grays are too much for your eyes to properly penetrate. This allows the player to leverage the primary mechanic that makes the Outlast games so creepy - you are often in the dark where the naked human eye can see almost nothing. Right off of the bat, there are some pretty strong similarities in the characters, though effort is taken in the initial scenes to try and give your character a bit more control and context over what is happening and why than the first game. Similar to the first game, you are thrust into the role of a journalist. Outlast 2 relies on a lot of the same basic mechanics, but makes the pacing faster and as a result, a little bit more frustrating as well. There was a great deal of tension built up around what amounted to a killer game of hide and seek. When I played the original game, I praised its willingness to take chances and mess with your mind as much as threaten the body. The sequel title tries to ramp things up by making the story even more twisted, and the overall experience is still a solid one, if it has not really evolved much from its predecessor. The original Outlast was effective for a variety of reasons, from its excellent use of lighting and sound design to a genuinely creepy setting and story. ![]() This command just created a Git remote named heroku, where we’ll push our code.
