What is Regelation?

The melting point of ice is 0°C at normal pressure but when you increase the pressure on ice it melts at the temperature below 0°C( i.e. melting point of ice decreases with pressure).
When the pressure applied is released then water formed from ice starts freezing. This phenomenon is called REGELATION.
