Path-integral molecular dynamics have been used to simulate the phase-I crystalline form of ammonia, using an empirical force field. This method allows quantum-mechanical effects on the average geometry and vibrational quantities to be evaluated. When these are used to adjust the output of a high-temperature density functional theory simulation, the results are consistent with those given by the most recent structural refinement based on powder neutron diffraction data. It is clear that the original refinement overestimated thermal motion, and therefore also overestimated the equilibrium N-{H/D} bond length.
