3D Modeling of interactions between Jupiter's ammonia clouds and large anticyclones

The motions of Jupiter's tropospheric jets and vortices are made visible by its outermost clouds, which are expected to be largely composed of ammonia ice. Several groups have demonstrated that much of this dynamics can be reproduced in the vorticity fields of high-resolution models that, surpr...
