Description:
The nominal model of the Jovian atmosphere proposed by Divine (1970) is used as a basis for an interpretation of spectroscopic observations. The results discussed are concerned with those observations which may be quantitatively interpreted, i.e., the R-branch of the 3 nu sub 3 band of methane centered at 1.1 micron, and the hydrogen quadrupole spectrum. The results give a self-consistent model for the structure and composition of the atmosphere, and the radiative properties of the visible cloud layers.
