We used modified Arrhenius approximations to analyze the known temperature dependences (TDs) of water microstructure parameters and its dynamic characteristics. The analysis of activation energies showed a significant difference in the molecular dynamics (MD) of water in the ranges from 273 to 298 K and from 300 to 373 K. The features of MD in the first range were associated with the metastable ice-like phase of water, in which hexagonal clusters with tetrahedral hydrogen bonds (HBs) predominate... (read more)
