Abstract
The acquired doses of Antarctic meteorites for dating of terrestrial ages were measured by the thermoluminescence (TL) intensity of fusion crust. It is now clearer that there is a significant correlation between the acquired dose and terrestrial age, which was previously measured by cosmogenic radionuclide abundance. Also, the ^<36>Cl method by accelerator mass spectrometry seems to provide a large terrestrial age occasionally.
