[QUOTE="perda04, post: 473863, member: 2348"] The temperature at which water is most dense is 4C. Water contracts as it approaches freezing then expands greatly once it hits 0C. It is why ice floats on lakes, oceans, etc rather than sink and destroy the ecosystem. The water at the bottom is not colder than 4C.
