Intertropical Convergence Zone

I learned that the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), known by sailors as the doldrums, is the area encircling the earth near the equator where the northeast and southeast tradewinds come together.

I want to know the causes and effects of Intertropical Convergence Zone.

I appreciate the fact that Intertropical Convergence Zone can be easily determined by PAG-ASA so that people will be ready when it occurs.

I can apply my learning and insights about the Intertropical Convergence Zone because it is reported by PAG-ASA and i can share my learnings clearly.
