Cosmogenic nuclides (10Be, 14C, 26Al, 36Cl) in paleoenvironmental archives serve as a proxy indicator of the paleointensity of cosmic ray, controlled largely by the strength of the solar/geomagnetic fields. Here, we present a millennial record of cosmogenic 10Be covering the past 300 kyr and obtained from ice cores drilled at the Dome Fuji station (77o19'S, 39o42'E), inland East Antarctica. A number of specific increases in 10Be were observed in this record and were connected semi-quantitatively to those in the cosmic-ray intensity caused by geomagnetic excursions during the last 300 kyr. These features can be used as stratigraphic time-markers for synchronization of not only Antarctic ice cores but also various paleoenvironmental archives such as deep-sea sediments
