Bruce William Hayward MNZM FRSNZ (born 1950) is a New Zealand geologist, marine ecologist, and author. He is known as a leading expert on living and fossil foraminifera.[1]
Education and career
At the University of Auckland, Bruce W. Hayward graduated in geology with B.S. in 1971 and Ph.D. in 1975.[2] In 1976–1977 he was a postdoc at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.[3] Hayward was from 1978 to 1991 a micropaleontologist for the New Zealand Geological Survey, Lower Hutt, from 1991 to 1997 curator of marine invertebrates at the Auckland Institute and Museum, and from 1997 to 2002 a self-employed research associate in the Geology Department of the University of Auckland, as well as from 1998 to 2000 a James Cook Research Fellow at the University of Auckland. In 2003 he became the Founder and Principal Scientist of Geomarine Research, located in Auckland. He was the Principal Scientist for three Marsden Fund grants: from 2000 to 2002 "Foraminifera and paleoceanography of Bounty Trough, east New Zealand", from 2003 to 2005 "The last global marine extinction: causes and consequences for global biodiversity", and from 2007 to 2010 "Causes of evolution and global extinction in the deep sea".[4] In addition to his research on foraminifera, he has done research on "northern New Zealand geology and landforms, marine invertebrate ecology, industrial archaeology and lichens."[1]
Hayward was from 1980 to 1989 an editor for the Geological Society of New Zealand, from 1988 to 2012 an associate editor for the Journal of Foraminiferal Research, and from 2010 chief editor for Foraminifera, World Register of Marine Species.[4] He is founder and convenor (1984-present) of the New Zealand Geopreservation Inventory and from 1990 to 1993 a member of the New Zealand Conservation Authority and from 1993 to 1996 a member of the Auckland Conservation Board. He is the author or co-author of "over 1000 publications, including more than 280 peer-reviewed papers, hundreds of popular articles, 13 scientific monographs and more than 20 popular books."[1]
