Susan Ringrose

Professor Susan Ringrose is affiliated with the School of Social & Environmental Sustainability, focusing on geomorphological processes in arid and tectonically active regions. Her research investigates landscape evolution, sedimentary formations, and environmental dynamics across diverse geographical settings, including Botswana, Namibia, and Scotland.

Key research themes include playa landform diversity, silcrete formation mechanisms, rift zone geomorphology, and hyper-arid floodplain systems. Her work combines field observations with geochemical analysis to elucidate long-term environmental changes and lithological interactions.

Publications (2018–2024) emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to understanding arid zone geomorphology, with contributions to the Scottish Geographical Journal, South African Journal of Geology, and Transactions of the Royal Society of South Africa. She has co-authored a book chapter on Botswana's Okavango Rift Zone landscapes.

No scientific awards, grants, or advising activities are explicitly documented in the provided text. Her research remains centered on advancing knowledge of Earth surface processes in extreme environments.
