         <abstract>The Tropic of Capricorn lies at 23d 26' 22&quot; (23.4394 degrees) south of the Equator and marks the most southerly latitude at which the sun can appear directly overhead at noon. This event occurs at the December solstice, when the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its maximum extent. The Earth's tropical zone (&quot;the tropics&quot;) includes everything between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.</abstract>
         <purpose>PacIOOS provides timely, reliable, and accurate ocean information to support a safe, clean, productive ocean and resilient coastal zone in the U.S. Pacific Islands region.</purpose>
