摘要: Abstract The ocean component of the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory coupled model is used to investigate whether or not interdecadal variability found in Delworth et al. an ocean-only mode a full system. In particular, it has been previously suggested that either 1) internal driven by fixed fluxes (atmospheric annual mean plus flux adjustment), which made less regular through forcing from atmospheric noise; 2) consequence use adjustments; 3) excited noise. Through series experiments conducted under fixed-flux boundary conditions shown none these three hypotheses holds and therefore concluded
