The ITCZ, or Intertropical Convergence Zone, is a region near the equator where trade winds from the Northern and Southern Hemispheres converge. This convergence causes rising air and leads to frequent thunderstorms and heavy rainfall, making it a key driver of tropical weather patterns. The ITCZ shifts north and south with the seasons, influencing climate and ecosystems in tropical regions. Its variability can significantly impact agriculture and water resources in affected areas.
