We examine the galactic cosmic-ray anisotropy by analyzing the sidereal daily variation (SDV) of ˜10TeV cosmic-ray intensity observed by the Tibet I I and Tibet I I I air shower arrays, during total 49 months between 1997 and 2001. It is found that the spurious variation in the extended-sidereal time (367c/y) becomes insignificant when the non-uniformity in the observation period is properly taken into account in the analysis. The SDV (366c/y) with ˜0.1% amplitude, on the other hand, remains significant in a good agreement with the result by the Mt.Norikura air shower experiment. The daily variation in the solar time (365c/y) also becomes quite consistent with the Compton-Getting anisotropy due to the earth's revolution around the sun. This is the most accurate result of the anisotropy ever reported in this energy region.
