Biography
Cor Langereis is the Head of the Paleomagnetic Laboratory Fort Hoofddijk of the Department of Sciences, Utrecht University (The Netherlands). His research interests cover nearly all fields of paleomagnetism, but in particular the acquisition of reliable and detailed records of the geomagnetic field at all time scales, which serves to understand the past magnetic field of our planet Earth. This work includes paleosecular variation studies – from recent periods (archaeomagnetism), during periods when the field did not reverse (superchrons) - and properties of the earliest field more than 3 billions of years ago.
