From: BBC's video "Nature: Brinicle" - an amazing natural phenomenon, described as "Ice Finger of Death"
In winter, the air temperature above the sea ice can be below -20C, whereas the sea water is only about -1.9C. Heat flows from the warmer sea up to the very cold air, forming new ice from the bottom.
