Dr. Geoffrey Henebry of SDSU is an ecologist whose research focuses on developing theory and technique to improve the analysis of image time series and the modeling of ecological phenomena. He serves on the Board of Directors of the USA National Phenology Network (www.usanpn.org) and as the Chair of the USA-NPN Remote Sensing Working Group. He is currently investigating the effects of the collapse of the Soviet Union on the arrival of spring in European Russia and Central Asia and the consequences for regional precipitation patterns. He serves as the principal investigator on a multidisciplinary NASA project on the potential biogeophysical consequences of extensification of biofuel feedstock cultivation in the Northern Great Plains. He also works on a USDA-funded project modeling the interannual variation in forage production in the grasslands of the Northern Great Plains. As a Fulbright Senior Research Fellow at the Brazilian Space Agency in 1993-94, Dr. Henebry used imaging radar to investigate flooding patterns in the Pantanal Matogrossense, the largest wetland on the planet. Dr. Henebry is a member of NASA's Land Use Land Cover Change Science Team and the Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative Science Team. He entered the field of ecological remote sensing while serving as a post-doctoral fellow with the Konza Prairie Long Term Ecological Research project at Kansas State University. He earned a Ph.D. and a M.S., both in Environmental Sciences, from the University of Texas at Dallas, and a B.A. in Liberal Arts from St. John's College in Santa Fe.
