Vertical molar fraction of the gases on Uranus (left) and Neptune (right) used by the model. Collision-induced absorptions and emissions of H2 and He contribute to radiative heating and cooling throughout the entire atmospheric column, as absorption and emission by methane (except on Uranus, where its abundance becomes insignificant at pressures below ~10 Pa). The other hydrocarbons are active only in the stratosphere for pressures between ~1 hPa and ~7 Pa on Uranus and below than ~10 hPa on Neptune.
