About
Shandelle Henson is an applied mathematician and ecologist. She uses dynamical systems theory to describe, explain, and predict the dynamics of animal behavior and populations. She and her ecologist husband Jim Hayward have studied the effects of climate change on seabirds in the Pacific Northwest since 2002.
Shandelle is also an artist. She paints landscapes en plein air in oil and pastel. Her artist website is https://shandellehenson.com.
Shandelle enjoys trail running, swimming, cycling, and hiking with her ecologist husband, Jim Hayward.
