- Thus the analysis of longer, high-resolution ice cores from the Canadian north could be quite revealing from the viewpoint of Arctic interdecadal variability.
- 1999, National Research Council, Improving American River Flood Frequency Analyses, page 92:
- Latif and Barnett's postulated mechanism is that self-sustained oscillations at interdecadal time scales can be set up through the influence of the subtropical ocean gyre on SST anomalies in the North Pacific and a subsequent delayed response of wind stress that spins down the gyre.

- This chapter describes variations in tropical cyclone activity over the western North Pacific on time scales from interdecadal to intraseasonal.

- Therefore, there is a striking interdecadal variation of ENSO signal in the upper heat content anomalies of the tropical Pacific during the past 120 years from 1881–2000.
