This essay focuses on how the albedo feedback and sea ice age-roughness-melt ponds-albedo feedback cause the mechanism of sea ice melting and anti-melting. This essay uses lots of research results to make a carding logic about two albedo feedbacks and uses the relationship deduction and backwards deduction to prove that the two feedbacks are valid. Finally, three Figures prove two theories directly, because Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 have a similar tendency to prove that the sea ice albedo is proportional to the percentage of sea ice area in the total area of ocean, and in Fig. 3, two lines are in perfect accordance with the previous prediction in the Explanation of Sea Ice Age-roughnessmelt ponds-albedo Feedback Theory Part. Also, some drawbacks that cause some abnormal values are mentioned in the Discussion Part, for example, albedos of both old and first-year sea ice in four seasons are replaced by other albedos that have a similar occurring situation.The research significance is that searching the mechanism of sea ice melting and anti-melting can help the researches about Arctic Amplification.
