The doldrums have low pressure. They have low pressure because the sun's rays hit the doldrums most directly because it is located near/on the equator. Since the sun's rays hit the doldrums, the air is warm. The warm air rises, bringing lowpressure.

What is the equatorial belt of low pressure and heavy rainfall called?
Doldrums
What is the low pressure area around equator?
The Intertropical Coverance Zone. Or to abbreviate, ITCZ.
What are the regions called either side of the equator where air pressure is low?
Doldrums
What does fly windless along the equator mean?
It means you have the doldrums (it's a sailing term). A low-pressure nearly windless zone at the Equator is known as the doldrums.
Are Doldrums Regions Of light Or Absent Winds Near The Equator?
In the days of sail, ships could find themselves becalmed in the doldrums. The doldrums is a low-pressure area around the equator where the prevailing winds are calm.

i am sure they do

What causes winds to blow?
Well, it has to do with high pressure, low pressure, horse latitudes and doldrums.

What are douldrums?
You probably mean "doldrums". The doldrums are low pressure building up area near the equatorial belt where the winds north of the equator/south of equator between the northern and southern trade winds in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans/two hemispheres rush in creating equatorial sea storms.The period of low pressure with no wind movement is termed as doldrums extended in the word used figuratively to mean a low mood, or melancholy. As in "He's down in the doldrums" (ie "he is sad and low")
What low pressure zone is found near the equator?
Is the convergence zone also know as the doldrums?
It’s high pressure zone with rising air
