| Popis: | Electron spin resonance ages of 11 corals from the lower part of the Ryukyu Group, Japan can be classified into two groups (about 600,000 and 800,000 yr). The result indicates that the lower part of the Ryukyu Group is correlated to at least two of the oxygen isotope stages 15, 17, 19, 21, and 23. Lowermost part of the Ryukyu Group was probably deposited during a large transgression and may be correlated worldwide. |
