Hello,

I've been working on a map and lurking a bit by reading up on some guides (particularly the climate one by Azelor https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...ad.php?t=27782). Before I draw out country borders I want to figure out where my climates and biomes are, and I'm still kind of confused on how to plot out the ocean currents, pressure zones, and precipitation.

1. What should my ocean currents look like in the inland sea on the left continent (zone A) and the northern part of the right continent (zone B) look like? Does what I have look reasonable?
2. I'm still somewhat confused about how to set up my pressure centers. For example, in the guide above it mentions that the ITCZ is a continuous strip; why is it broken up by the oceans then? Additionally, why don't the relevant pressure zones cover the whole continent? If it's just the zones of pressure extremes for a region, how does one approximate the shapes?
3. What happens when different precipitation factors contradict each other? For example, I've read that cold currents result in lower precipitation, but onshore winds result in higher precipitation; what happens with onshore winds blowing onto a shore that has a cold current?

I did not start with any tectonic plate designing, but rather with a handdrawn map of one part (I switched over to GIMP after realizing it would take quite a rather large amount of paper at the scale I was at), so the mountains and coastwork outside of the NE part of the left continent may need some touch-up. So far I have an elevation map, which is left out. Latitude is in 15 degree increments. The world is the same as Earth in regards to size, inclination, etc. All help is appreciated.
