Full Description
This examination focuses on the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), analyzing its role in tropical weather systems and the influence on global climatic patterns.
The ITCZ is pivotal in understanding equatorial climates, directly affecting precipitation patterns and the formation of tropical systems, which has significant implications for agriculture and water resources.
Candidates will be assessed on their ability to discuss the characteristics of the ITCZ, its movement throughout the year, and its impact on local and regional weather phenomena.
Additionally, students may need to relate the ITCZ's behavior to broader climatic events such as El Niño and its implications for global weather patterns.
Sample Questions
- How does the position of the ITCZ change seasonally, and what effects does this have on weather?
- What role does the ITCZ play in the development of tropical weather systems?
