Near the equator, which outcome occurs when insolation reaches a maximum?

💡 Explanation

Intense insolation causes amplified convection within the Hadley cell, which reinforces the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) because rising warm air increases moisture convergence. Therefore, the ITCZ intensifies rather than the jet stream shifting, since jet streams are mid-latitude phenomena.
