Assistant Professor


PhD Geological Sciences, University of
California, Santa Barbara, 2000
MSc Earth Science, University of Waikato,
New Zealand, 1995
BSc Earth Science & Geography, University of
Waikato, New Zealand, 1992



Fields of Study
Dr. Hendy's interests involve understanding climate change processes in relation to
ocean and atmospheric circulation. Increasing concern about global climate change
makes improving our understanding of what drives climate change highly relevant.
Previous research has used faunal assemblages and stable isotopes of foraminifera,
redox and bulk sediment geochemistry, grainsize among other methods to
deconvolve the processes controlling past climate change.
