The decadal variation in the tropical Indian Ocean is investigated using outputs from a 200- yr integration of the Scale Interaction Experiment- Frontier Research Center for Global Change ( SINTEX- F1) ocean atmosphere coupled model. The first EOF mode of the decadal bandpass- ( 9 - 35 yr) filtered sea surface temperature anomaly ( SSTA) represents a basinwide mode and is closely related with the Pacific ENSO-like decadal variability. The second EOF mode shows a clear east - west SSTA dipole pattern similar to that of the interannual Indian Ocean dipole ( IOD) and may be termed the decadal IOD. However, it is demonstrated that the decadal air - sea interaction in the Tropics can be a statistical artifact; it should be interpreted more correctly as decadal modulation of interannual IOD events ( i. e., asymmetric or skewed occurrence of positive and negative events). Heat budget analysis has revealed that the occurrence of IOD events is governed by variations in the southward Ekman heat transport across 15 S and variations in the Indonesian Throughflow associated with the ENSO. The variations in the southward Ekman heat transport are related to the Mascarene high activities.
