Question : Which of the following sets of statements are correct about the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)? a. The ITCZ is a broad trough of low pressure in equatorial latitudes. b. This is where the northeast and the southeast trade winds converge. c. The ITCZ is the equatorial trough normally positioned about 5 degrees North of the equator and remains there throughout the year. d. The ITCZ moves over to the plane of Ganga in Summer.
Option 1: a, b and c
Option 2: Only a and c
Option 3: a, b and d
Option 4: Only b and c
Correct Answer: a, b and d
Solution : The correct option is a, b and d .
The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is indeed a broad trough of low pressure in equatorial latitudes. It is characterised by the convergence of trade winds from the northern and southern hemispheres, leading to rising air, cloud formation, and frequent precipitation.
The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is the region where the northeast trade winds from the Northern Hemisphere meet the southeast trade winds from the Southern Hemisphere.
