Team
Cor G. Langereis
Cor obtained his PhD in 1984 at Utrecht University and has been an ardent paleomagnetist ever since, from 1995 as head of the Paleomagnetic laboratory Fort Hoofddijk, and from 1999 as full professor. Cor remains fascinated by the Earth's magnetic field recorded in the geological archive, and all its applications in dating, tectonics, and more.
Daniel Pastor-Galán
Daniel earned his PhD degree in Geology from Salamanca University in 2012, worked as a post-doc at Fort Hoofddijk until 2016 and is currently Assistant Professor at Tohoku University, Japan. His research is focused on using multi-disciplinary tools to understand tectonic processes, orogenic curvature, paleogeography and plate kinematics.
Douwe J. J. van Hinsbergen
Douwe received his PhD degree in Geology from Utrecht University in 2004, subsequently worked at universities in the UK and Norway, and is currently Full Professor, Chair in Global Tectonics and Paleogeography in Utrecht. He specializes in plate and paleogeography reconstructions, especially of intensely deformed convergent margins.
Bram Vaes
Bram works as a Junior Researcher in the Mantle Dynamics and Theoretical Geophysics group. His research mainly focuses on developing new global plate motion reference frames. This includes building a new paleomagnetic reference frame, in which plate motions are described relative the Earth's spin axis, and developing new ways to model global absolute plate motions (i.e. plate motions relative to the deep mantle) back in geological time.
