melting of ice (fwd)

Subject: WSN: melting of ice
Hello,
I am interested in the transition of ice into liquid water, and way
to handle melting with statistical mechanics. About this subject
I have a few questions. I hope that somebody can help me.
1. Are there a recent reviews dealing with the statiscal mechanics
of ice and its melting to water?
2. Is it possible to deduce the partition function of a single water
molecule (in ice as well as in liquid water) by using Infra-red
and Raman-spectra? How?
3. What is the value of the Pauling-result for the entropy of low-
temperature ice?
Thanks and regards,
