Özet

In the present research and analysis in relation are carried out

using the growth rates, isotopes and rare element time series of the

corallites taken from the coral reef site in Çanakkale Strait. The

basic idea behind this study is to show the relation between climate

parameters and the time series of the corallite parameters of the

Scleractinian coral Cladocora caespitosa. Used climate parameters

are sea surface temperature, ambient temperature, sunshine duration

and solar radiation. The present research is the investigation using

the corallite features of Cladocora caespitosa regarding to climate

and solar radiation for multidisciplinary purpose to show that coral

corallites can be used to reveal the climatic data globally. This study

also represents the first investigation on the age determination of C.

caespitosa living in the Turkish seas. We obtained the coral colony,

of which the corallite sample from the reef site resulted in an age

of 49 years with the retrospective expectations of sunshine duration

minimum and maximum values as 4,42-7,84 hours between the

years 1970 and 2019.
