Scientific paper

The present investigation confirms the hypothesis that the atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune are inhomogeneous and that they both consist of two cloud layers. For upper layers, the gas/aerosol ratio is shown to increase rapidly with depth. It is noted that, in order to obtain a better understanding of the vertical inhomogeneity of the Uranus and Neptune atmospheres, it is necessary to make more accurate observations in the weak and strong absorption bands of methane and to obtain CH4 absorption coefficients at lower temperatures.
