Julie Varina Rowland is a New Zealand structural geologist, and is a full professor at the University of Auckland, specialising in tectonic-magmatic-hydrologic interactions, particularly in rift systems. In 2015 she became the first woman to win the Geoscience Society of New Zealand's McKay Hammer Award.

Academic career

Rowland undertook her undergraduate training at the University of Auckland, and has a Diploma in Secondary Education from the Auckland College of Education.^[1] She taught at a number of Auckland schools, including Tangaroa College, James Cook High School, and St Cuthberts College, and Western Springs College, where she was head of the department of physical education.^[1]

In 2001 Rowland completed a PhD titled Hydrothermal fluid redistribution in a magmatic rift: The Ruaumoko Rift System, Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand at the University of Otago.^[2]^[3] Rowland then joined the faculty of the University of Auckland, rising to full professor in 2024.^[1]^[4] Rowland was the Head of School of Environment,^[5] and as of 2024 is the Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Science Administration.^[1] In 2024 Rowland was elected to serve two years as Vice President of Regional Affairs for the international Society of Economic Geologists.^[6]

Rowland's research interests focus on tectonic-magmatic-hydrologic interactions. Her work is of relevance for understanding geological hazards, fundamental tectonics, and mineral exploration.^[7]^[1]

Honours and awards

In 2015 Rowland was awarded the Geoscience Society of New Zealand's major award, the McKay Hammer Award. She was the first woman to win the award.^[8]^[9]
