 Melting studies were performed on the randomized ice crystals using

-ranging from 25 to 400 K, with a maximum degree increment of 25 K. For

-Figure \ref{ssdedense} shows the density profile for the SSD/E water
-model in comparison to the original SSD without a reaction field,
-experiment, and the other common water models considered
-previously. The calculated densities have increased significantly over
-the original SSD model and match the experimental value just below 298
-K. At 298 K, the density of SSD/E is 0.995$\pm$0.001 g/cm$^3$, which
-compares well with the experimental value of 0.997 g/cm$^3$ and is
-considerably better than the SSD value of 0.967$\pm$0.003
-g/cm$^3$. The increased dipole moment in SSD/E has helped to flatten
-out the curve at higher temperatures, only the improvement is marginal
-at best. This steep drop in densities is due to the dipolar rather
-than charge based interactions which decay more rapidly at longer
-distances.
- 
-By monitoring C$\text{p}$ throughout these simulations, the melting
-transition for SSD/E was observed at 230 K, about 5 degrees lower than
-SSD. The resulting density maximum is located at 240 K, again about 5
-degrees lower than the SSD value of 245 K. Though there is a decrease
-in both of these values, the corrected densities near room temperature
-justify the modifications taken.

+have increased significantly over the original SSD model (see figure

 The reparameterization of the SSD water model, both for use with and
 without an applied long-range correction, brought the densities up to
 what is expected for simulating liquid water. In addition to improving
 the densities, it is important that particle transport be maintained
 or improved. Figure \ref{ssdediffuse} compares the temperature

-reaction field, both at the densities calculated at 1 atm and at the

+active reaction field, both at the densities calculated at 1 atm and

 water. In the upper plot, the diffusion constant for SSD/E is
-consistently a little faster than experiment, while SSD starts off
-slower than experiment and crosses to merge with SSD/E at high
-temperatures. Both models follow the experimental trend well, but
-diffuse too rapidly at higher temperatures. This abnormally fast
-diffusion is caused by the decreased system density. Since the
-densities of SSD/E don't deviate as much from experiment as those of
-SSD, it follows the experimental trend more closely. This observation
-is backed up by looking at the lower plot. The diffusion constants for
-SSD/E track with the experimental values while SSD deviates on the low
-side of the trend with increasing temperature. This is again a product
-of SSD/E having densities closer to experiment, and not deviating to
-lower densities with increasing temperature as rapidly.

-underwent crystallization events near 245 K. As the heating process
-continued, the two systems remained crystalline until finally melting
-between 320 and 330 K. These simulations were excluded from the data
