Labelings are checked to ensure that they obey both the usual selection rules and the HITRAN labeling formalisms; the problems identified are corrected where possible. Further assignments are brought into question by combination difference (CD) checking of implied upper energy levels. The CD analysis yields an 89% complete 14NH3 energy level list up to 6610 cm−1 and J=21, self-consistent to 0.1 cm−1. In combination with the 1723 previously unassigned and unlabeled lines in HITRAN a total of 2529 problem lines were identified for re-analysis. The compiled energy level list was used to label and assign the set of problem transitions, resulting in a total of 249 new assignments and a further 368 new labelings. Assignment by comparison with the reference line list resulted in 111 further new line assignments and 14 new labelings. Intensities are checked against recent measurements and BYTe. New intensities are proposed for the ν2ν2 band with new intensities and line positions for the 2ν2−ν22ν2−ν2 and new line lists are created for the ν2−ν2ν2−ν2, ν2−ν4ν2−ν4 and ν4−ν4ν4−ν4 bands. BYTe band intensities are analyzed to identify other regions of missing intensity. date: 2013-11 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jqsrt.2013.05.027 vfaculties: VMPS oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_source: Scopus elements_id: 883986 doi: 10.1016/j.jqsrt.2013.05.027 lyricists_name: Hill, Christian lyricists_name: Tennyson, Jonathan lyricists_name: Yurchenko, Sergey lyricists_id: CHILL41 lyricists_id: JTENN43 lyricists_id: SYURC56 full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer volume: 130 pagerange: 260-272 issn: 0022-4073 citation: Down, MJ; Hill, C; Yurchenko, SN; Tennyson, J; Brown, LR; Kleiner, I; (2013) Re-analysis of ammonia spectra: Updating the HITRAN 14NH3 database.
