Sandra Arlinghaus

Sandra Lach Arlinghaus is an American geographer who is adjunct professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability (formerly School of Natural Resources and Environment) at the University of Michigan. Her research concerns mathematical geography much of which is archived in the persistent archive, Deep Blue, at The University of Michigan. She is the Founder of the Institute of Mathematical Geography (IMaGe) and of Solstice: An Electronic Journal of Geography and Mathematics; full archives of both are also archived in Deep Blue. She is noted as a 'mathematician' in the online Mathematical Genealogy Project of the North Dakota State University/American Mathematical Society that is housed online. She has served on various boards of directors (in addition to IMaGe), including (but not limited to): Project My Heart / Your Heart, Chene Street History Study, and Meridian Architectural Trust.
