A cross-dating method for coral skeletons was examined by connecting plural reconstructed paleoclimate records to make their chronology longer. Holocene fossil corals were collected from Sekisei lagoon, Ryukyu, Japan, and their radiocarbon ages were determined, annual bands were counted, and oxygen isotope ratios were measured. These results indicate that more than 400-year paleoclimate record will be obtained from overlapped chronologies of some coral samples. Besides, to make oxygen isotope analysis simpler and quicker, the precision, analysis time and optimum conditions for coral samples were examined for GasBench/isotope ratio mass spectrometry.

通过连接多个重建的古气候记录以使其年代更长，研究了珊瑚骨骼的交叉年代测定方法。从日本琉球的石成泻湖采集全新世珊瑚化石，测定其放射性碳年龄，计数年带，并测量氧同位素比。这些结果表明，可以从一些珊瑚样本的重叠年代中获得超过 400 年的古气候记录。此外，为了使氧同位素分析更简单、更快捷，还对珊瑚样品的GasBench/同位素比质谱分析的精度、分析时间和最佳条件进行了检查。
