Scientific paper

It has been shown experimentally, for the first time, that the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is manifested by a predominant generation of anaticyclonic Rossby solitons in a model of a homogeneous atmosphere of a rotating planet. These solitons drift opposite the global rotation. Their properties and the conditions for their existence are reminiscent of the vortex at the Jovian Great Red Spot.
