| Abstract | The South Pacific Convergence Zone (SPCZ) is a high rainfall region of the atmosphere. It is the largest and most constant spur of the global Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) covering a large area of the tropical and subtropical South Pacific. The SPCZ and ITCZ are important parts of the global water cycle. These regions contribute around 30% of total global precipitation and serve as source regions for atmospheric moisture transfer to higher latitudes. In addition, the SPCZ is the main fea |
