supercooling

It has been shown that some insects become much more susceptible to freeze injury if they are fed ice nucleating bacteria before exposure to cold temperatures, indicating that supercooling is a naturally occuring strategy for freeze-avoidant insects.

Spontaneous nucleation at such low degrees of supercooling is unlikely, thus there are probably ice nucleating proteins or bacteria on the surface of the frog that catalyze ice formation.

According to Brownridge, the effect is based on another phenomenon called supercooling, the fact that even though we all know zero degrees Celsius is the freezing point of water, water hardly ever freezes right at zero degrees.

According to Riddle (1981), Anguispira alternata avoids freezing of its tissues by undergoing supercooling almost down to -16 °C.

Freeze tolerance, which appears to be an energetically less costly strategy than extended supercooling, is a common strategy in very cold regions.

Prior to 2003, gas was primarily a regional commodity, consumed near where it was produced and transported by pipelines … That changed with development of cheaper methods for supercooling and transporting the fuel across the ocean in liquefied form, which requires 1/600th the space.
