About this audiobook
The intertropical convergence zone. This guide explains the belt where trade winds meet near the equator, why it breeds the world's heaviest rainfall, how it migrates with the sun and wobbles with the seasons, and its role in hurricanes, monsoons, and droughts. No equations, for curious readers.
