Modern relationships between the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), the El Niņo-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and upper water conditions in SBB also suggest a preference of the northeast (NE) Pacific climate during the warm mid-Holocene toward the warm phase of the PDO and more intense ENSO warm events (""El Niņos""). In the context of future climate, this study suggests increasing decadal- to centennial-scale climatic variability in a globally warmed world.
