We combine high-resolution observations of the dynamical behavior of small vortices (diameters ⩽5000 km) located at latitude 60°N on Jupiter with forward modeling, using the EPIC atmospheric model, to address two open questions: the dependence of the zonal winds with depth, and the strength of vortices that are too small to apply cloud tracking to…
