The area on Earth known for having no wind is called the "Doldrums," which is located near the equator. This region is characterized by a lack of significant wind due to the calm, rising air associated with the intense heat of the equator. Sailors historically avoided these areas, as ships could become stranded for days without any breeze to propel them. The Doldrums are part of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
