Trade winds
Global winds and currents near the equator flow east to west. The global wind belt located north and south of the equator is called trade winds.

They are very light if at all, most of the winds at the equator are going straight up due to the amount of heating.
Global winds and currents near the equator flow east to west. The global wind belt located north and south of the equator is called trade winds.
The Coriolis effect bends them
the area around the equator where trade winds meet is called the doldrums.
The area around the equator where trade winds meet are called
a wind blowing steadily towards the equator is called trade winds
The trade winds are located 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south of the equator.
The trade winds coming from the north and the south meet near the equator. They produce upward winds and are heated.
