In the wake of the detection of Jupiter's H2 S4(2) feature, low-temperature laboratory measurements of NH3 are used in a detailed analysis to ascertain an improved equivalent width for the H2 S4(0) line. Good agreement is obtained between equivalent widths computed from published models and the equivalent widths observed for this line. It is noted that the approximately 150 K effective formation line temperature at Jupiter's averaged disk center, which has been determined from the nominal S4(2)/S4(0) ratio, is in keeping with an H2 ortho-para ratio for Jovian equilibrium tropospheric H2.
