23 \section*{Supplemental Materials}
24 Canonical ensemble (NVT) molecular dynamics calculations were
25 performed using the OOPSE molecular mechanics program.\cite{Meineke05}
26 All molecules were treated as rigid bodies, with orientational motion
27 propagated using the symplectic DLM integration method. Details about
28 the implementation of this technique can be found in a recent
29 publication.\cite{Dullweber1997}
30
31 Thermodynamic integration is an established technique for
32 determination of free energies of condensed phases of
33 materials.\cite{Frenkel84,Hermens88,Meijer90,Baez95a,Vlot99}. This
34 method, implemented in the same manner by B\`{a}ez and Clancy, was
35 utilized to calculate the free energy of several ice crystals at 200 K
36 using the TIP3P, TIP4P, TIP5P, SPC/E, SSD/RF, and SSD/E water
37 models.\cite{Baez95a} Liquid state free energies at 300 and 400 K for
38 all of these water models were also determined using the same
39 technique in order to determine melting points and to generate phase
40 diagrams. System sizes were 648 or 1728 molecules for ice B, 1024 or
41 1280 molecules for ice $I_h$, 1000 molecules for ice $I_c$, and 1024
42 molecules for both Ice-{\it i} and the liquid state simulations. The
43 larger crystal sizes were necessary for simulations involving larger
44 cutoff values. All simulations were carried out at densities which
45 correspond to a pressure of approximately 1 atm at their respective
46 temperatures.
47
48 Thermodynamic integration was utilized to calculate the Helmholtz free
49 energies ($A$) of the listed water models at various state points
50 using the OOPSE molecular dynamics program.\cite{Meineke05} This
51 method uses a sequence of simulations during which the system of
52 interest is converted into a reference system for which the free
53 energy is known analytically ($A_0$). The difference in potential
54 energy between the reference system and the system of interest
55 ($\Delta V$) is then integrated in order to determine the free energy
56 difference between the two states:
57 \begin{equation}
58 A = A_0 + \int_0^1 \left\langle \Delta V \right\rangle_\lambda d\lambda.
59 \end{equation}
60 Simulations were {\it not} distributed uniformly along this path in
61 order to sufficiently sample the regions of greatest change in the
62 potential difference. Typical integrations in this study consisted of
63 $\sim$25 simulations ranging from 300 ps (for the unaltered system) to
64 75 ps (near the reference state) in length.
65
66 For the thermodynamic integration of molecular crystals, the Einstein
67 crystal was chosen as the reference system. In an Einstein crystal,
68 the molecules are restrained at their ideal lattice locations and
69 orientations. Using harmonic restraints, as applied by B\`{a}ez and
70 Clancy, the total potential for this reference crystal
71 ($V_\mathrm{EC}$) is the sum of all the harmonic restraints,
72 \begin{equation}
73 V_\mathrm{EC} = \frac{K_\mathrm{v}r^2}{2} + \frac{K_\theta\theta^2}{2} +
74 \frac{K_\omega\omega^2}{2},
75 \end{equation}
76 where $K_\mathrm{v}$, $K_\mathrm{\theta}$, and $K_\mathrm{\omega}$ are
77 the spring constants restraining translational motion and deflection
78 of and rotation around the principle axis of the molecule
79 respectively. These spring constants are typically calculated from
80 the mean-square displacements of water molecules in an unrestrained
81 ice crystal at 200 K. For these studies, $K_\mathrm{r} = 4.29$ kcal
82 mol$^{-1}$, $K_\theta\ = 13.88$ kcal mol$^{-1}$, and $K_\omega\ =
83 17.75$ kcal mol$^{-1}$. It is clear from Fig. \ref{waterSpring} that
84 the values of $\theta$ range from $0$ to $\pi$, while $\omega$ ranges
85 from $-\pi$ to $\pi$. The partition function for a molecular crystal
86 restrained in this fashion can be evaluated analytically, and the
87 Helmholtz Free Energy ({\it A}) is given by
88 \begin{eqnarray}
89 A = E_m\ -\ kT\ln \left (\frac{kT}{h\nu}\right )^3&-&kT\ln \left
90 [\pi^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{A}kT}{h^2}\right
91 )^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{B}kT}{h^2}\right
92 )^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{C}kT}{h^2}\right
93 )^\frac{1}{2}\right ] \nonumber \\ &-& kT\ln \left [\frac{kT}{2(\pi
94 K_\omega K_\theta)^{\frac{1}{2}}}\exp\left
95 (-\frac{kT}{2K_\theta}\right)\int_0^{\left (\frac{kT}{2K_\theta}\right
96 )^\frac{1}{2}}\exp(t^2)\mathrm{d}t\right ],
97 \label{ecFreeEnergy}
98 \end{eqnarray}
99 where $2\pi\nu = (K_\mathrm{v}/m)^{1/2}$, and $E_m$ is the minimum
100 potential energy of the ideal crystal.\cite{Baez95a}

106 $\theta$ angles correspond to displacement from the body-frame {\it

108 body-frame {\it z}-axis. $K_\theta$ and $K_\omega$ are spring
109 constants for the harmonic springs restraining motion in the $\theta$
110 and $\omega$ directions.}

114 In the case of molecular liquids, the ideal vapor is chosen as the
115 target reference state. There are several examples of liquid state
116 free energy calculations of water models present in the
117 literature.\cite{Hermens88,Quintana92,Mezei92,Baez95b} These methods
118 typically differ in regard to the path taken for switching off the
119 interaction potential to convert the system to an ideal gas of water
120 molecules. In this study, we applied one of the most convenient
121 methods and integrated over the $\lambda^4$ path, where all
122 interaction parameters are scaled equally by this transformation
123 parameter. This method has been shown to be reversible and provide
124 results in excellent agreement with other established
125 methods.\cite{Baez95b}
126
127 Near the cutoff radius ($0.85 * r_{cut}$), charge, dipole, and
128 Lennard-Jones interactions were gradually reduced by a cubic switching
129 function. By applying this function, these interactions are smoothly
130 truncated, thereby avoiding the poor energy conservation which results
131 from harsher truncation schemes. The effect of a long-range
132 correction was also investigated on select model systems in a variety
133 of manners. For the SSD/RF model, a reaction field with a fixed
134 dielectric constant of 80 was applied in all
135 simulations.\cite{Onsager36} For a series of the least computationally
136 expensive models (SSD/E, SSD/RF, TIP3P, and SPC/E), simulations were
137 performed with longer cutoffs of 10.5, 12, 13.5, and 15 \AA\ to
138 compare with the 9 \AA\ cutoff results. Finally, the effects of using
139 the Ewald summation were estimated for TIP3P and SPC/E by performing
140 single configuration Particle-Mesh Ewald (PME)
141 calculations~\cite{Tinker} for each of the ice polymorphs. The
142 calculated energy difference in the presence and absence of PME was
143 applied to the previous results in order to predict changes to the
144 free energy landscape.
145
146 Additionally, $g_{OO}(r)$ and $S(\vec{q})$ plots were generated for
147 the two Ice-{\it i} variants (along with example ice $I_h$ and $I_c$
148 plots) at 77K, and they are shown in figures \ref{fig:gofr} and
149 \ref{fig:sofq}. The $S(\vec{q})$ is related to a three dimensional
150 Fourier transform of the radial distribution function, which
151 simplifies to the following expression:
152
153 \begin{equation}
154 S(q) = 1 + 4\pi\rho\int_{0}^{\infty} r^2 \frac{\sin kr}{kr}g_{OO}(r)dr,
155 \label{sofqEq}
156 \end{equation}
157
158 where $\rho$ is the number density. To obtain a good estimation of
159 $S(\vec{q})$, $g_{OO}(r)$ needs to extend to large $r$ values. Thus,
160 simulations to obtain these plots were run for crystals eight times
161 the size of those used in the thermodynamic integrations.

169 simulations composed of TIP4P water.}

179 width) to compensate for the trunction effects in our finite size
180 simulations.}
