Default ice cube madness

What causes this cube to get smaller in an environment that appears to
stay the same?

You've gotten some good answers. I asked a while back why a glass filled
with ice and water added doesn't overflow when the ice melts if you don't
drink any of the water I can't for the life of me remember the answer
and am too lazy to Google for it. It just seemed a curious thing to me.

Very much good answers, it's nice to see people sharing their ideas
and knowledge.

As far as the ice water thing goes, I seem to remember some science
show explain it some years back.
