Projected trajectories of several fiducial fluid elements (as seen in the corotating frame) for an l=m=2 Newtonian r-mode. All of the fluid elements are initially positioned on the φ0=0 meridian at different latitudes (indicated with stars). Blue dots indicate the position of the fluid elements after each full oscillation period. The r-mode induces a kinematical, differential drift.
