Q. At which among the following latitudes do Doldrums lie? Answer:
10 degree North and 10 degree South latitudes
Notes: The equatorial low pressure belt lies between 10 degree N and 10 degree S latitudes. This belt is also called the Doldrums because of the extremely calm air movements. This belt is the zone of convergence of trade winds from two hemispheres from sub-tropical high pressure belts. It is characterized by extremely low pressure with calm conditions.
