The two chemicals are trimethylamine and dimethylamine, both derived from trimethylamine oxide, which is particularly common in the flesh of fin fish, especially cold-water, surface-dwelling ocean fish like the cod.
Under the influence of cold water the surface temperature of a tested hand has decreased in a statistically significant way by 8.3°C on average, which is 29% of the temperature before the test, whilst the temperature of an untested hand dropped by 0.67°C.
A churning hurricane can pull cold water to the surface, rapidly stifling its own growth by turning off the flow of energy from warm-water evaporation, experts say.

There in 1974 he set up a laboratory to use the temperature difference between deep cold water, and warm surface water, to produce electricity.
Hurricanes power up their circulation by evaporating warm water from the ocean, but usually that process eventually brings enough cold water to the surface to weaken the storm.
In their model, stronger winds draw more cold water to the surface in the east, as happens during El Niño's opposite phase called La Niña.
Many scientists believe the answer lies in the Pacific, which is sending massive slugs of cold water to the surface, helping cool the planet.
At this depth, the Purbeck formation hydraulically decouples the Foreland Molasse Sediments from the Upper Jurassic (Fig. 2c, d) due to its low hydraulic conductivity and, thus, prevents a deeper penetration of cold water from the surface.
Several patents described the dyeing of textiles with indigo dye, first pre-treatment of textile materials with ecofriendly mordants and then with reduced indigo dye in inert atmosphere and then oxidation via flooding of cold water over the surface [81].
That makes it easier for a hurricane to stir cold water up to the surface.
