Didn't you say that the water at 39 degrees is more dense than water at its freezing point? I think the reason organisms would die is because the water already starting to structure in a crystal form, when it starts to freeze into ice. This probably why it kills the organisms, is because the water ceases to allow the organism to function at those temperatures.
