Patrick Arneitz works at the Conrad Observatory since 2013 and is mainly responsible for the archeo- and paleomagnetic laboratory. Using such records, he developed a global geomagnetic field model covering the last 4000 years within the framework of his doctoral thesis. His research focus is set on magnetic field variations on different timescales including geomagnetic field reversals, secular variations and short-term fluctuations.
