About
Simon Ring is a Researcher at the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of St Andrews, specializing in geochemical and paleoclimatological investigations of Earth's systems. His work integrates laboratory experiments with paleoclimate reconstructions to address fundamental questions about biogeochemical cycles and climate dynamics.
His academic credentials include:
- Bachelor of Science, Eberhard-Karls Universität Tübingen
- Master of Science, Eberhard-Karls Universität Tübingen
- Doctor of Science, Freie Universitat Berlin
Dr. Ring's research focuses on isotope geochemistry and paleoclimatology, with particular expertise in boron cycling mechanisms, greenhouse gas-climate relationships, and Earth surface processes. His fingerprint analysis reveals dominant contributions to Greenhouse Gas (100%), Clay Mineral (100%), and Fractionation (100%) research domains, alongside significant work in isotopic composition studies (66%) and Pleistocene climate systems (50%).
Analysis of his recent publications (2020-2025) demonstrates consistent investigation of biogeochemical proxies across geological timescales. His work bridges laboratory-scale mineral adsorption studies with planetary-scale climate questions, particularly examining boron isotope systematics in clay minerals and Cenozoic greenhouse gas dynamics. This integrative approach connects elemental cycling to long-term climate sensitivity.
