Condensation curves for H2O, NH4SH, and NH3, plotted against two P–T profiles: (1) a 275 K Sonora Elf Owl model with elevated metallicity ([Fe/H] = 1.0) and C/O (2.5 times solar), for which all three cloud species could form; and (2) our custom cloud model from Figure 6, for which H2O and NH4SH but not NH3 clouds are expected to form. The NH4SH curve is plotted following the equation provided in C. Visscher et al. (2006), for metallicity 3 times solar.
