Key Points
- The Intertropical Convergence Zone, or ITCZ, is the region that circles the Earth, near the equator.
- Here 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.
- With the help of convergence of the trade winds, the buoyant air rises.
- As the air rises it expands and cools, releasing the accumulated moisture in an almost perpetual series of thunderstorms.
