Here is you answer :-

➡️The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is an area of low pressure that forms due to  the action of the Hadley Cell, where the Northeast Trade Winds meet the Southeast  Trade Winds near the Earth’s equator.

➡️As these winds converge, moist air is forced upward.  This causes water vapour to condense, or be “squeezed” out, as the air cools and rises, resulting in a band of heavy precipitation around the globe.

➡️This band moves seasonally, always being drawn toward the area of most intense solar heating, or warmest surface  temperatures.

The ‘salient features’ of the ‘inter-tropical convergence zone’:

  • The ‘inter-tropical convergence zone’ is a region of increased levels of precipitation, convection, and clouds due to being located in the equatorial trough that has permanent features of low-pressure with surface trade winds that are laden with heat and moisture, converge within the zone.
  • The inter-tropical convergence zone is a belt which is a belt that is characterized by total low pressure around the earth and near the equator.  
  • It is the zone where the trade winds from the ‘Southern hemisphere’ and from the ‘Northern hemisphere converge’.
