Environmental parameters such as sea surface temperature, salinity, upwelling and/or freshwater influx are affecting growth and geochemical composition of coral skeleton. Because of their high growth rate, wa can reconstruct these changes with bi-weekly to monthly resolution. This high temporal timescale makes coral skeleton a powerful tool to reconstruct seasonal scale changes of ocean and atmospheric processes. My present study is reconstructing paleoclimate of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 3 deduced from fossil corals from Kikai Island, Japan. I am planning to ananlyze fossil corals to reconstruct climate change throughout Late Pleistocene and to compare fossil to modern coral record.<br> Abstract: Corals are sensitive to ocean and atmospheric changes as they record environmental conditions in their skeletons with 1.0 cm/yr growth rate.
