I also need the pressure that corresponds to this temperature, and cite sources if possible.
To give you context, it is for my thermodynamics class. We're in the chapter that introduces steam tables. Compressed liquid-compressed solid tables are not in the appendices of my book.

*Note: If you're going to answer 0 °C, refrain from doing so.

About -22 C, at 207.5 MPa. The link below has a phase diagram for water. As this is about 2000X atmospheric pressure, I would be curious if there are any engineering applications, that is, outside of a physics lab.

It depends on the pressure it's at and its gas and mineral coontent. If you have pure water, you should be able to look up some triple points as a function of pressure.

Under the right conditions, water, and other fluids, can become "supercooled", meaning that they can exist in the liquid states below their STP (standard temperature and pressure) freezing temperature. Under these conditions, any outside stimulus (e.g. vibration) the water will instantly freeze.

-22.0 degrees C at 207.5 MPa. I found a nice phase diagram at the site below:
