They are very light if at all, most of the winds at the equator are going straight up due to the amount of heating.

What is a belt of steady winds blowing toward the equator?

The trade winds are located about degrees north and south of the equator?
The trade winds are located 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south of the equator.
What are the characteristics of the doldrums and why do they occur?
The high solar intensity at equatorial latitudes causes intense heating at the equator, which produces powerful convection currents called Prevailing Winds. The Doldrums are where the prevailing winds at the Equator die.
What are winds along the equator called?
The trade winds coming from the north and the south meet near the equator. They produce upward winds and are heated.

Trade Winds
What are winds that blow from east to west between the tropics and the equator?
trade winds
