Scientific paper

The possibility that inertial waves with a wavelength of the order of the Rossby radius can form in the atmospheres of giant planets is demonstrated. Bright anticyclonic eddies at latitudes of +47 or -41 deg are external manifestations of quasi-periodic perturbations with periods 50-150 times greater than the Jovian period of rotation. The depth of the inertial boundary layer is 190-570 km and the effective coefficient of kinematic viscosity is (0.6-5.7) x 10 to the 11th sq cm/s.
