CHE SIGNIFICA THE DOLDRUMS IN INGLESE
depressione
Il doldrums è un'espressione colloquiale derivata dall'uso storico marittimo, in cui si riferisce a quelle parti dell'Oceano Atlantico e dell'Oceano Pacifico colpite dalla Zona di Convergenza Intertropicale, una zona a bassa pressione intorno all'equatore dove i venti prevalenti sono calma. La bassa pressione è causata dalla forza centrifuga dal movimento di rotazione della Terra che è più importante all'equatore, che rende l'aria aumenta e si avvicina a nord e sud nell'atmosfera, fino a quando non si ripiega nelle latitudini dei cavalli. Alcuni di quell'aria ritorna ai disordini attraverso i venti commerciali. Questo processo può portare a venti leggeri o variabili e condizioni più gravi, sotto forma di squalli, temporali e uragani. I doldrums sono noti anche per periodi di calma quando i venti scompaiono totalmente, intrappolando barche a vela per periodi di giorni o settimane. Il termine sembra aver avuto luogo nel XVIII secolo - quando i viaggi di navigazione cross-Equator sono diventati più comuni. Colloquamente, i "sconvolgimenti" sono uno stato di inattività, di depressione lieve, di insensibilità o di stagnazione. La parola è derivata da dold e -rum, un suffisso sostantivo trovato in parole come "tantrum".
