Cooking at a sufficient temperature kills many microbes and parasites.
The treatment of OPF juice with higher temperature killed more microbes and hence provided a better environment for sugar stability for prolonged storage.
This past year, abnormally high water temperatures killed a quarter of a million sockeye salmon, almost half the river's annual run.
Plummeting temperatures killed the flowers, which meant no apples, though orchards in western Maine, where temperatures remained cool, did flower and fruit.
In September participants in the British Association Festival of Science were warned that coral reefs would disappear in 30 50 years because global warming would cause widespread coral bleaching (a condition in which high water temperatures kill the algal partners of coral).
A rise of 1°C in mean summer temperatures killed 1% more people, whereas that same rise in mean winter temperatures saved a mere 0.6%, according to an analysis of death records for nearly 3 million people 65 years and older living in New England from 2000 to 2008.
But don't let the low temperatures kill your holiday buzz.
To complete the study, published Monday in the journal Nature Climate Change, Mora and 17 other researchers analyzed about 1,900 cases in which high temperatures killed people in dozens of cities worldwide since 1980.
The increase ends and often the rate drops below normal as soon as temperatures cool, which suggests that the higher temperatures are killing people who are likely to die soon anyway.
To generate a high temperature and a longer duration of high temperature to kill pathogens and sterilize the compost, peat was considerably more effective.
