Abstract
⺠The long-term SSN and rainfall variations were bound through a casual mathematical equation. ⺠Simultaneous presence of both external forcing and natural oscillations is a necessary condition. ⺠The yearly rainfall data for Fortaleza (Brazil) from 1849 up to 2010 were used for the analysis. ⺠Phase inversion in the interdecadal rainfall component is due to a period increase in SSN after 1950. ⺠Irregular phase shift in the decadal rainfall component is due to anharmonic character of SSN.
