What is the Intertropical Convergence zone in the Philippines?

This is were the northern and southern hemisphere air meet together by the equator. These winds often bring a lot of rain with them.


The trade winds of the northern hemispheres and southern hemisphere meet at the equator in a narrow zone of weak variable winds called what?

The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone.


Does the equator divide Earth into northern and southern hemispheres?

Zero LATITUDE separates the northern and southern hemispheres. Latitude lines circle the globe 'horizontally' and longitude lines all connect at the north and south poles, running vertically. Longitude lines would divide the eastern and western hemispheres. ==Note...== Zero latitude is commonly referred to as the Equator.yes.........Yes, it does. That particular line of latitude is called the Equator.


Is the distance between any two meridians the same as you travel north or south of the equator?

Between the equator and either pole, no matter what interval you choose foryour display of the meridians of longitude, they all gradually converge, untilthey all meet in a single point at the pole. The space between any two meridians,at any latitude, is(the space between them at the equator) x (cosine of the latitude). But their behavior on both sides of the equator is perfectly symmetrical.That is, as you move farther from the equator, the meridians converge inthe southern hemisphere exactly as they do in the northern one.


What are intertropical convergence zone?

The intertropical convergence zones are areas directly along the equator where winds from the northern and Southern Hemisphere interact, usually as masses of clouds and thunderstorms.

How many degrees are between the northern and southern hemisphere?

The northern and southern Hemispheres each consist of a range of 90 degrees of latitude. They meet at the equator ... it's the boundary between them. There's no gap between them at the equator, so if you wanted to, you could go to the equator and stand with one foot in each hemisphere. Each hemisphere is shaped like ... like ... like a hemisphere. That's like half of a grapefruit. Their edges fit together to make a complete sphere, and the distance between them at their edges, as well as the angle between them, is zero.


Is France located in the northeastern hemisphere?

There is no such thing as a northeastern hemisphere. Hemisphere comes from Greek and means half globe or half orb. Northeast would result in a quarter globe; the part that the northern and the eastern hemisphere both cover. The northern hemisphere is the part of the earth that lies North of the equator (i.e. everything between the equator and the north pole). The southern hemisphere, as you would have guessed, is the opposite. The eastern hemisphere is the part of the earth that lies east of the 0-meridian (the north-south linh that runs through Greenwich, London). The western hemisphere, again, is the opposite. They meet on the opposite side of the earth at 180°, approximately on the date/time border. France is on the northern hemisphere and the major part of it, is on the eastern hemisphere.


What are the four hemispheres or the earth?

Hemisphere comes from Greek and means half globe or half orb. The northern hemisphere is the part of the earth that lies North of the equator (i.e. everything between the equator and the north pole). The southern hemisphere, as you would have guessed, is the opposite. The eastern hemisphere is the part of the earth that lies east of the 0-meridian (the north-south linh that runs through Greenwich, London). The western hemisphere, again, is the opposite. They meet on the opposite side of the earth at 180°, approximately on the date/time border.

What continent and what hemisphere is the south pole located?

The continent of Antarctica (location of the South Pole) is in the Southern Hemisphere, being south of the Equator. As all the southern ends of the lines of longitude meet together at the South Pole, Antarctica is in both the Western and Eastern Hemispheres at the same time.
