About Decades
A decade = exactly 10 Gregorian years = 315,569,520 s. Climate scientists compute 10-year running means to remove interannual variability; IPCC reports compare decadal temperature anomalies. Moore's Law predicted ~10× transistor density increase per decade. US Census counts are constitutionally mandated each decade. Cultural periods are colloquially labelled by decade (the 1960s, the 1980s). 1 decade = 10 yr.
About Weeks
A week (wk) = exactly 7 days = 604,800 s. The 7-day week derives from Babylonian astronomy assigning one of the seven classical celestial bodies to each day - preserved in English (Sun-day, Mon-day, Satur-day) and Romance language day names. It spread globally via Jewish, Christian, and Islamic calendars. ISO 8601 numbers weeks 1-52(53) with Monday as day 1. 365-day years contain 52 weeks + 1 day. 1 wk = 7 d = 604,800 s.
