Explain the occurrence of Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and how does it affect the weather?

Answers (1)

The Intertropical Convergence Zone, or ITCZ, is the region that circles the Earth, near the equator, where the trade winds of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres come together. The intense sun and warm water of the equator heats the air in the ITCZ, raising its humidity and making it buoyant.
