     Hydrodynamics. Aerodynamics is for the dryer stuff.

Forgot to explain another thing about your turtle sighting.  If the top shell 
was not high and rounded, but rather flat, it probably was an aquatic turtle 
of some sort, probably a variety of slider.  The flatter shape makes for 
better aerodynamics in the water.  This is the time of year when aquatic 
turtles leave the water and come up on the banks to lay their eggs.
