Abstract
⺠Revised methane line data give very good fit to Uranus H-band spectra. ⺠Reflectivity of particles in main cloud deck is found to decrease with wavelength from 1.4 to 1.6 μm. ⺠Uranus' CH3D/CH4 ratio is determined to be 2.9-0.5+0.9Ã10-4. ⺠New line data allow differentiation between methane humidity and cloud top height. ⺠Methane humidity is found to be high in the tropics, but to decrease rapidly polewards of 45°N and S.
