Least volatile
- Brazzaville: 0.56
How is it calculated?
Our volatility “beta” number is generated by an algorithm that analyzes hourly barometric pressure changes. It looks at how much the pressure fluctuates from hour to hour. A beta of 0 means no change, perfectly stable pressure. The higher the decimal value, the more variation there has been throughout the day or over a longer period.
Weather Systems
Low air pressure often covers the Republic of the Congo because warm, moist air rises from the equator. Rainy weather systems called the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) move north and south over the country, causing changes in air pressure and bringing lots of rain.
Geography
The Congo River basin is flat and covered with thick rainforest. This geography helps trap warm air and moisture, making air pressure lower and less variable across much of the country. Hills and plateaus in the south may have slightly higher or changing air pressure because of their elevation and different weather.
Seasonal Cycles
Pressure rises and falls in cycles each year. During the March to May and September to November rainy seasons, the ITCZ moves over the country, lowering air pressure and causing heavy rain. In drier months, when the ITCZ moves away, air pressure rises and the weather becomes more stable and dry.
Climate Change
Climate change can disturb these air pressure patterns. Hotter temperatures make the air even warmer and more humid, which can lower pressure further and cause more intense storms. Changing seasons might also shift when pressure rises or falls, making weather harder to predict.
