The processes of the dynamical interactions of the ice are described. Special attention is given to the self-excited oscillating processes when the ice goes through periodical deformations similar to these which appear in the structures in the sea ice. The range of the self-excited oscillations periods is from 0.1 s to 20 s. The jump-like processes transform themselves into the quasi-harmonical ones up to sound frequency range. For comparison purposes the spectra of the frictional self-excited oscillations in the glaciers are presented. An iceberg interacting with the drifting ice also forms self-excited oscillating system with period of up to 10 s. An example of numerical evaluation of the forces of interaction between a drifting ice island and the sea ice is given.
