dc.description.abstractAltitude profiles of ammonia and its photochemical products are generated in the light of the new measurements of the Jovian temperature structure, eddy transport coefficient, improved chemical scheme, and rate constants. Realistic limits are placed on the concentration of hydrazine which may participate in the recycling of ammonia on Jupiter. The maximum hydrazine ice production rate is calculated to be about 1.3 mg m-2/Jovian day. The distribution of nitrogen gas is presented with and without supersaturation of hydrazine. The nitrogen mixing ratio near the ammonia cloud top is estimated to be in the range of 10-9 to 10-11. An appreciable latitudinal variation in the ammonia concentration is expected.en_US
