Abstract
Investigations have been made using GOSSTCOMP* data in the area of the subtropical and antarctic convergence zone. The study showed that the position of both boundaries undergoes oscillations in E-W direction and it is assumed that the circumpolar current may act on both boundaries of the convergence zones. Since it seems that the antarctic convergence zone is not as stable as has been postulated before, it is suggested that unstable waves, gyres and interaction of different water bodies are the major cause of the observed changes in the location of the two zones.
