Why little wind and much afternoon occur in the doldrums?
Little wind and much afternoon rain occur in the doldrums because near the equator, the Sun heats the air and causes it to rise, creating low pressure and little wind. The rising air then cools, causing rain.
What is the area called near the equator where there may be little wind?
The areas called the Doldrums are near the equator. In the doldrums, persistent low pressure systems are caused by rising hot air, creating long periods of calm winds. To make way in the doldrums, a sailing ship depended on local storms, squalls, or passing tropical storm systems.
Why do doldrums happen?
Doldrums form over the equator because of the high tempuratures. Doldrums are areas around the equator that receive little wind. Heating causes air to expand, creating a zone of low pressure. This concludes that cloudy weather and rain develop almost every single afternoon.
Do doldrums have high pressure or low pressure?
The doldrums have low pressure. They have low pressure because the sun's rays hit the doldrums most directly because it is located near/on the equator. Since the sun's rays hit the doldrums, the air is warm. The warm air rises, bringing lowpressure.
What describes the movement of air in general?
doldrums,land breeze,polar easterlies,prevailing,westerlies,trade winds,and sea breeze.

In the doldrums where surface winds from two hemispheres meet there is?
hot, humid air with little or no wind

What causes doldrums?
The doldrums are regions near the equator with weak winds due to the convergence of trade winds. This can be caused by the Earth's rotation and the movement of air masses. The lack of wind in the doldrums can make sailing through these regions slow and challenging.

Why are doldrums called that?
Sailors are afraid of the doldrums, because it is an area around the Equator with little and often no wind. Sailors with sail-powered ships were often trapped there for days or weeks on end because there was no wind. This means that the sailors were using their provisions, without knowing how long they would be there. Another reason why this area is scary is that because there is often no wind, there are also no swells, which makes the water almost like a mirror, reflecting the clouds. On a moonless, cloudless night, this gave the impression of floating in space - an eerie feeling for the mostly superstitious sailors. Lastly, inactivity and boredom probably brought on squabbles and unrest, which made the doldrums all in all not the place to be for a sailor.
When is there very little wind because of the warm rising air?
in a warm front i think
How do you make wind on little alchemy?
air + PSI = wind
