Why is it that the ice density vs temperature plot is non linear, it appears there is a bit of an inflection at T=-20C, does anyone know why this is?

SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the non-linear relationship between ice density and temperature, specifically highlighting an inflection point at T=-20°C. Participants noted that this phenomenon is attributed to the unique molecular structure of ice and its phase transitions. The non-linear behavior is significant for understanding thermodynamic properties and predicting ice behavior in various environmental conditions.
