Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have reconstructed the change in Kuroshio transport during last 100 years using the coral skeletons from four different areas in north Pacific of Kuroshio regions (Luetao island, Taiwan, Koshiki island, Kagoshima, Tatsukushi, Kouchi, Kushimoto, Wakayama). We applied the oxygen isotopes, strontium/calcium ratio, nitrogen isotopes on coral skeletons to estimate the past changes of salinity, temperature, and nutrient with weekly to monthly temporal resolution and discussed the relationship during last 100 among the Kuroshio behavior, global warming, and regional climate systems, including ENSO and PDO.
