  abstract = {{E}merging decadal climate predictions call for an assessment of decadal climate variability in the {C}oupled {M}odel {I}ntercomparison {P}roject ({CMIP}) database. {I}n this paper, we evaluate the influence of {E}l {N}io {S}outhern {O}scillation ({ENSO}) on {P}acific {D}ecadal {O}scillation ({PDO}) in 10 control simulations from the {CMIP}3 and 22 from the {CMIP}5 database. {A}ll models overestimate the time lag between {ENSO} forcing and the {PDO} response. {W}hile half of the models exhibit {ENSO}-{PDO} correlation which is close to that in observation (> 0.5) when the time lag is accounted for, the rest of the models underestimate this relationship. {M}odels with stronger {ENSO}-{PDO} correlation tend to exhibit larger {PDO}-related signals in the equatorial and south {P}acific, highlighting the key role of {ENSO} teleconnection in setting the inter-hemispheric {P}acific pattern of the {PDO}. {T}he strength of the {ENSO}-{PDO} relationship is related to both {ENSO} amplitude and strength of {ENSO} teleconnection to the {N}orth {P}acific sea-level pressure variability in the {A}leutian {L}ow region. {T}he shape of the {PDO} spectrum is consistent with that predicted from a combination of direct {ENSO} forcing, atmospheric stochastic forcing over the {N}orth {P}acific and the re-emergence process in 27 models out of 32. {G}iven the essential role of {ENSO} in shaping the {P}acific decadal variability, models displaying realistic {ENSO} amplitude and teleconnections should be preferentially used to perform decadal prediction experiments.},
