... reached the tropical belt and experienced the equatorial calms Explanation: Both these terms are geographical - the tropical belt refers to the two geographic belts of the earth, located in the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere between the subtropical and subequatorial belts.The equatorial calms refers rather to weather than waters, in that it a windless, light wind or squally state found in the tropical belt region. The effect is that waters are calm. Alison |
