Many scientists have criticized the plausibility of cryptids due to lack of physical evidence, [7] likely misidentifications [8] and misinterpretation of stories from folklore. [9] While biologists regularly identify new species following established scientific methodology, cryptozoologists focus on entities mentioned in the folklore record and ...
The term cryptid is used by proponents of cryptozoology, a pseudoscience, to refer to beings that cryptozoologists believe may in fact exist but have not yet been discovered. This category is for notable examples of entities that cryptozoologists have considered to be cryptids

A saturation dome uses the projection of a P–v–T diagram (pressure, specific volume, and temperature) onto the P–v plane. The points that create the left-hand side of the dome represent the saturated liquid states, while the points on the right-hand side represent the saturated vapor states (commonly referred to as the “dry” region).
A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]
The P-T-t paths are generally classified into two types: clockwise P-T-t paths, which are related to collision origin, and involve high pressures followed by high temperatures; [4] and anticlockwise P-T-t paths, which are usually of intrusion origin, and involve high temperatures before high pressures. [4]
However, for a given sequence {X n} which converges in distribution to X 0 it is always possible to find a new probability space (Ω, F, P) and random variables {Y n, n = 0, 1, ...} defined on it such that Y n is equal in distribution to X n for each n ≥ 0, and Y n converges to Y 0 almost surely. [11] [12] If for all ε > 0,
