Latitudinal and Longitudinal Oscillations of Cloud Features on Neptune

Voyager observations suggest that three of Neptune's major cloud features oscillate in latitude by 2° to 4° and that two of them simultaneously oscillate in longitude by 7.8° and 98° about their mean drift longitudes. The observations define most convincingly the two orthogonal oscillations of...
