Physical Geography
The intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is a region near the equator where the trade winds from the Northern and Southern Hemispheres come together, creating a belt of low pressure characterized by rising warm, moist air. This convergence leads to the formation of clouds and precipitation, making it a key area for tropical weather patterns and significant rainfall.
