North-East and South-East trade winds converge in a low pressure zone from
about 5°N to 5°S, known as the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Solar

circulation system and this zone is the wettest area on the planet. The
equatorial region does not have a dry season and is constantly hot and humid.
