Mark M. Meerschaert is Chair of Applied
Mathematics in the Department
of Mathematics & Statistics at the University of Otago in
Dunedin,
New Zealand and an active member of the Fractal
Calculus project. Mark M. Meerschaert
is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department
of Physics at the University
of Nevada. Professor Meerschaert has
professional
experience in the areas of mathematical modeling, probability,
statistics, operations
research, partial differential equations, ground
water and surface water hydrology, and statistical physics. He
started his professional career in 1979 as a systems analyst at Vector
Research, Inc. of Ann Arbor and Washington D.C., where he worked on a
wide
variety of modeling projects for government and industry. Meerschaert
earned
his doctorate in Mathematics from the University of Michigan in
1984.
He has taught at the University of Michigan, Albion College, Michigan
State
University, the University of Nevada in Reno, and most recently at the
University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand. His
current research interests include anomalous diffusion, continuous time
random walks, fractional derivatives and fractional partial
differential
equations, ground water flow and transport, heavy tail models in
finance, modeling river flows with
heavy
tails and periodic covariance structure, limit theorems and parameter
estimation
for infinite variance probability models.
