国际科学界强调，十年期和多年期气候变异是气候研究的一个优先领域。环印度洋区域居住着世界三分之一的人口，其中大多数生活在易受气候多变性和人为气候变化日益增加的压力影响的发展中国家。然而，尽管印度洋发生了显著的十年和多年变化，但对它们的研究却少于太平洋和大西洋。本文回顾了有关印度洋这些变化的现有文献，包括观测证据、物理机制和气候影响。本文还确定了未来印度洋十年和多年变化研究的主要问题和挑战。
The international scientific community has highlighted decadal and multidecadal climate variability as a priority area for climate research. The Indian Ocean rim region is home to one-third of the world's population, mostly living in developing countries that are vulnerable to climate variability and to the increasing pressure of anthropogenic climate change. Yet, while prominent decadal and multidecadal variations occur in the Indian Ocean, they have been less studied than those in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. This paper reviews existing literature on these Indian Ocean variations, including observational evidence, physical mechanisms, and climatic impacts. This paper also identifies major issues and challenges for future Indian Ocean research on decadal and multidecadal variability.
