### temperature:

Low temperature
* Most low temperature affects survival
  - causes health problems
  - limits biological reaction
  - reduces growth
* Some low temperature combines with rainfall
  - increases energy
* accelerates short day responses in the Siberian hamster.
* acting for a longer time provokes the destruction of myelin in exposed area.
* are common in alpine areas
  - for brief periods, down to zero at night, sometimes sub zero
  - generally what causes flowering in winter sown rape
  - unfavorable for beetle survival
* can also result in poor growth
  - cause icing on planes
* cause coral bleaching.
* causes serious health problems
* decrease the functionality of blood hemoglobin and lead to asphyxia.
* destroy the enzymes necessary for ripening, color development and flavor.
* enhances responses.
* have a retarding effect.
* increase radia- tion and decrease heat loss by evaporation and vice versa
  - the persistency of agents
* induce rough blossom-end scarring of tomato fruit during early flower development.
* induces hibernation in green turtles and loggerheads.
* inhibit methane oxidation activity in the topsoil of the landfill.
* initiates flower development and reduces carbohydrate accumulation in the hypocotyl.
* injure plants by inducing ice formation between or within the cells.
* is one of the most critical environmental limitations for plants
* keep the grass seed from germinating.
* lead to slow decomposition and high litter accumulation.
* leads to decomposition.
  - growth of food poisoning and food spoilage organisms
* make epoxy set slowly
  - manure more viscous, as does drying during hot weather
* means long wavelengths.
* primary factor in the severity of black root rot.
* promote compact growth, but slow development
  - flowering and compact growth, but slow development
  - root growth
  - the rate of ripening, deterioration and sugar loss
* restrict growth and reproductive processes, which curtails carbon acquisition.
* result in high mortalities, especially among nymphs
  - relative humidities that foster mite population
  - males and high temperatures in females
* shorten the runtimes of lead-acid and alkaline batteries.
* slow bacterial growth and chemical activity
  - disinfection action
* slow down bacterial growth
  - the growth of micro-organisms and the rate of chemical changes in food
* slow the growth rate of tilapia
  - loss of body fluids, and keep a heavy fish heavy
* slows reaction time requiring longer contact, especially to kill giardia.
* tend to precipitate wax in diesel fuels
  - prolong animal development and high temperatures tend to retard it
* yields results
  - same results

### temperature:

Lower temperature
* Most lower temperature causes health problems.
* Some lower temperature increases humidity
  - relative humidity
  - requires for spermatogenesises
* affect people more positively.
* are redder in color, while higher temperatures are bluer in color.
* can also slow or arrest the cascade of events that lead to cell death.
* cause blood to move toward the center of the body and away from hands and feet
  - the liquid water to change phase to ice
* delay growth and flowering.
* encourage the development of sturdy plants and stimulate flower bud development.
* extend the shelf-life considerably.
* improve performance, fuel economy and durability while reducing emissions.
* inhibit mold and insect survival.
* maintain plant quality.
* mean photons with less energy and fewer collisions.
* promote the formation of codeine.
* reduce the rates of photosynthesis, limiting plant growth.
* requires higher humidity level to balance the climate.
* slow the moisture transfer rate from the air to the raisins.
* slows the movement of carbon dioxide into rock.

Maximum temperature
* occur north of the equator, and minimum values are found in the polar regions.
* varies among regions.
