| 21. | The source of the rainfall is the southwest monsoon and the island's location in the Intertropical Convergence Zone.
|
| 22. | In early October 1947, the origins of Hurricane Nine were detected north of Panama in the Intertropical Convergence Zone.
|
| 23. | Global air currents are slowly carrying the lethal nuclear fallout across the Intertropical Convergence Zone to the Southern Hemisphere.
|
| 24. | Furthermore, the intertropical convergence zone ( or doldrums ) reaches the region during the summer months, leading to enhanced precipitation.
|
| 25. | When this occurs over the tropics in concert with the Intertropical Convergence Zone, it is known as a monsoon trough.
|
| 26. | By the middle of the dry season, the intertropical convergence zone moves south of Chad, taking the rain with it.
|
| 27. | Within the tropics, distinct, wet and dry seasons emerge due to the movement of the Intertropical Convergence Zone or Monsoon trough.
|
| 28. | Most storms form in warm waters several hundred miles north of the equator near the Intertropical convergence zone from tropical waves.
|
| 29. | The latitudinal movement of the subtropical ridge is strongly correlated with the progression of the monsoon trough or Intertropical Convergence Zone.
|
| 30. | The equatorial region near the Intertropical Convergence Zone ( ITCZ ), or monsoon trough, is the wettest portion of the world's continents.
