Scientific paper
Thermal profiles of Jupiter are retrieved from recent far-infrared spectral measurements and for H2 mixing ratios varying from 0.8 to 0.94. The effective temperature corresponding to the inferred thermal profile is 123.15 + or - 0.35 K. Far-infrared brightness-temperature spectra computed from these profiles are compared with experimental data, including measurements made at high spectral resolution in the NH3 nu-2 band at 10 microns and in NH3 pure rotational bands between 40 and 110 microns. It is found that a strong depletion of NH3 does occur in the Jovian stratosphere and that ammonia seems to be undersaturated in the upper troposphere.
