Because Saturn is colder than Jupiter, the more colourful chemicals occur lower in its atmosphere and are not seen; this results in much less dramatic markings, but they are similar to those seen on Jupiter, taking the form of ... Saturn's rings are very reflective, and could be composed of ices such as make up comets.

Jupiter is the giant of the planets, ... We now know that these patterns result from the transport of heat from lower to upper layers in the atmosphere, which get wrapped around the planet because of its fast rotation period of 10 hours. The coloring comes from the different chemicals that make up the atmosphere.
