Radio occultations cannot separate Uranus or Neptune's internal spin from wind contributions to atmospheric shape, as the total rotation is already tightly constrained, though they can test wind assumptions and detect north-south asymmetries.

Can radio occultations constrain Uranus or Neptune's internal rotation periods?
Radio occultations cannot separate Uranus or Neptune's internal spin from wind contributions to atmospheric shape, as the total rotation is already tightly constrained, though they can test wind assumptions and detect north-south asymmetries.
