Geoffrey M. Henebry is a Professor at Michigan State University’s Department of Geography, Environment, and Spatial Sciences and the Center for Global Change and Earth Observations. A broadly trained environmental scientist, he specializes in interdisciplinary research using remote sensing and geospatial technologies to study environmental patterns and processes.
Dr. Henebry earned his Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences from the University of Texas at Dallas in 1989. His career spans postdoctoral work at Kansas State University’s Konza Prairie LTER project (1989–1996), faculty roles at Rutgers-Newark (1996–1999), University of Nebraska-Lincoln (1999–2005), and South Dakota State University (2005–2011), where he co-directed the Geospatial Sciences Center of Excellence.
His research focuses on remote sensing applications in land surface phenology, land cover/land use change, and spatiotemporal analysis of environmental dynamics across grasslands, croplands, drylands, wetlands, and urbanizing regions. He has conducted fieldwork and collaborations in North/Central/South America, Eastern Europe, European Russia, and Central Asia.
- Senior Fulbright Research Fellow (1993–1994)
- John A. Hannah Distinguished Visiting Professor (2018–2019)
Dr. Henebry has secured grants from NASA, NSF, NIH, DOE, USGS, NRC, NATO, and international space agencies. He serves as Associate Editor of Remote Sensing of Environment (since 2018) and on editorial boards of International Journal of Biometeorology, Landscape Ecology, and Science of Remote Sensing. Previously, he held editorial roles at BioScience, Ecology & Society, and others.
He is actively involved with the American Geophysical Union (AGU) and the North America Chapter of the International Association for Landscape Ecology (IALE-NA). His mentorship includes doctorate students from Bangladesh, China, Colombia, Ethiopia, The Netherlands, The Philippines, Poland, Ukraine, and Vietnam, as well as masters students and postdoctoral associates from multiple countries.
