Scientific paper

It is suggested that the Rossby autosoliton (RAS) model provides an adequate description of Jupiter's Red Spot. Both the RAS and the Red Spot are anticyclones, have dimensions exceeding the Rossby-Obukhov radius, propagate in a westerly direction, self-organize into zonal flows, and are approximately stationary in time. Thus, it is concluded that RASs generated in the laboratory can be used to simulate the Red Spot.
