Where Does Convergence Occur?

At the surface, low pressure systems have a counterclockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere, with the wind turning slightly inward towards the lowest pressure

lowest pressure
Atmospheric pressure is caused by the gravitational attraction of the planet on the atmospheric gases above the surface and is a function of the mass of the planet, the radius of the surface, and the amount and composition of the gases and their vertical distribution in the atmosphere.

. This causes air to converge, or come together, at the center of the low near the ground.

Where does convergence and divergence occur?

Divergence occurs when the price of an asset and an indicator move away from each other. Convergence happens when the price of an asset and an indicator move toward each other.

Where is the convergence zone?

The location of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone is usually readily seen as a line of cumulus clouds in the tropics. This is the location where northeast winds in the Northern Hemisphere converge with the southeast winds from the Southern Hemisphere.
