Traditionally, ice I was considered to exist in two well-defined crystalline forms at ambient pressure: stable hexagonal ice (ice I h ) and metastable cubic ice (ice I c ). However, it is becoming increasingly evident that what has been called cubic ice in the past does not have a structure consiste...
