What windless area is near the equator?
It's an area in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans called the "Doldrums." It is a low pressure area along the equator caused when all the hot air along the equator rises very high and flows North or South. Eventually it comes back down in the horse latitudes, about 30 to 36 degrees North and South of the equator.Also, if you wanna know what is just the "area near the equator" alone, it is the tropical zone.
