Usage examples
  • Converging winds in the ITCZ force air upward. The ITCZ appears as a band of clouds consisting of showers, with occasional thunderstorms, that encircles the globe near the E quator. The solid band of clouds may extend for many hundreds of miles and is some times broken into smaller line segments. It exists because of the convergence of the trade winds. In the Northern Hemisphere, the trade winds move in a southwesterly direction, while in the S outhern H emisphere they move northwesterly.
