Monsoons, ITCZs, and the Concept of the Global Monsoon [PDF]
Reviews of Geophysics, 2020 Abstract Earth's tropical and subtropical rainbands, such as Intertropical Convergence Zones (ITCZs) and monsoons, are complex systems, governed by both large‐scale constraints on the atmospheric general circulation and regional interactions with continents and orography, and coupled to the ocean.
