Maybe the late hour has clouded my intellectual capabilities, but what the heck does that mean:

'Women have a higher body surface area to mass ratio, meaning that they can lose heat quicker and at lower outside temperatures."

Is that graph telling me that when, say, a dude and a broad are identical in weight and height she's got the larger body surface area in relation to her mass? Or do they mean that since women tend to have less muscle mass and because of it normally weigh less even than an average man of comparable height they have a larger skin area for what weight they do have?

There is nothing mentioned about height.

Burial on sea is stil practice in case that some sailor die on ship? Or bodies are keept in morgue and later buried on ground?
 
Interesting question!
 
Burial on sea is stil practice in case that some sailor die on ship? Or bodies are keept in morgue and later buried on ground?
Burials at sea are usually reserved for those sailors that have left the sea behind and make a request in their will to be so disposed of. In most countries it is usually a scattering of the ashes.

Should a sailor die at sea the remains are usually stored until after any investigation takes place and then flown ashore or kept until making port and then returned to the family.

During wartime those arrangements may go by the wayside (depending on circumstances) and committing the body to the deep is common if there is ongoing hostilities as can be seen in many news reels of WW2
