Inter Tropical Convergent Zone

    

I learn that Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), known by sailors as the doldrums, is the area encircling the earth near the equatorwhere the northeast and southeast trade winds come together.
I want to know about how inter tropical convergence zone affect are daily living.
I would like to research on the effect of inter tropical convergence zone in our weather condition.
I appreciate the fact that inter tropical convergence zone can caused an increase in thunderstorm activity, and under weak vertical wind shear, these clusters of thunderstorms can become tropical cyclones.
I can apply my learning and insight about this phenomenon happen I know that I am fully aware and if somebody ask me about Inter tropical Convergence zone I can answer and explain it with what I've learn.
