The vibrational dependence of self-broadening of molecular hydrogen lines results in a desaturation of quadrupole absorption lines long thought to be highly saturated in planetary atmospheres. This desaturation significantly alters H2 abundances in the atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune. The authors present baseline models to illustrate the effects of the revision of this fundamental H2 parameter.
