The vapour pressures of ice and supercooled water are reviewed with an emphasis on atmospheric applications. Parametrizations are given for the vapour pressure, molar heat capacity, and latent heat of vaporization of both ice and liquid water. For ice, the experimental vapour pressure data are in agreement with a derivation from the Clapeyron equation. Below 200 K cubic ice may affect the vapour pressure of ice both in the atmosphere and in the laboratory. All of the commonly used…

Accurate vapor pressure measurements of supercooled water in the temperature range between 252 K and 273 K
Heat of freezing for supercooled water: measurements at atmospheric pressure.
TLDR
Calorimetric measurements of the heat released by freezing water at atmospheric pressure as a function of supercooling show that the heat of freezing can be considerably below one predicted from a reversible hydrostatic process.
Temperature dependence of the vapor pressure and evaporation coefficient of supercooled water
We report measurements of the vapor pressure of water over the supercooled temperature range 248 to 273 K derived from evaporation kinetics measurements of single water droplets. Accurate…

H2O and CO2 vapor pressure measurements at temperatures relevant to the middle atmosphere of Earth and Mars
Measurements of the vapor pressure of H2O and CO2 at temperatures relevant to the middle atmosphere of Earth and Mars are rare but important in order to describe cloud formation and ice particle…
Measurements of the vapor pressure of cubic ice and their implications for atmospheric ice clouds
Under conditions commonly found in Earth's atmosphere, water can form two solid phases; hexagonal ice (Ih) and cubic ice (Ic). Recent reports have suggested that Ic may form in the atmosphere under a…
Growth rate of crystalline ice and the diffusivity of supercooled water from 126 to 262 K
TLDR
Using a pulsed-laser–heating technique, the crystalline-ice growth rate and liquid-water diffusivity for temperatures between 180 and 262 K in ultrahigh-vacuum conditions are determined, ruling out the hypothesis that water’s properties have a singularity at or near 228 K at ambient pressures.
Measurements of the Vapor Pressure of Supercooled Water Using Infrared Spectroscopy
Measurements are presented of the vapor pressure of supercooled water utilizing infrared spectroscopy, which enables unambiguous verification that the authors’ data correspond to the vapor pressure…
Kinetics of the homogeneous freezing of water.
TLDR
The most recent thermodynamic data for cubic ice (the metastable phase thought to nucleate from supercooled water) is used to estimate the interfacial energy of the cubic ice-supercooling water interface and a value of 20.8 +/- 1.2 mJ m(-2) is estimated.

Water activity as the determinant for homogeneous ice nucleation in aqueous solutions
TLDR
This work shows from experimental data that the homogeneous nucleation of ice from supercooled aqueous solutions is independent of the nature of the solute, but depends only on the water activity of the solution, and presents a thermodynamic theory for homogeneous ice nucleation, which expresses the nucleation rate coefficient as a function of water activity and pressure.
