The surface layer of the water freezes solid creating a barrier that insulates the ice below so that it keeps a steady temperature usually a few degrees above freezing (32 degrees).
It is important to note that the graph has 0 solar intensity for a long part of the day; around 16 hours. Only from 8 to 16 hours do we have significant sunlight.
This means that the length of day is very short during this time of the year;
The length of the day changes throughout they year; day is equal to night (12 hours each) during the solstices on March 21 and September 23 but during summer day is longer than night in the northern hemisphere; during winter it is smaller. THe smallest daylength is at December 21st (in the northern Hemisphere). This phenomenon is due to the tilt of the axis of the earth.
