Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide

Andy Ridgwell spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Carbon cycle, Climate change, Earth science and Global warming. He has researched Oceanography in several fields, including Photic zone and Biogeochemical cycle. His studies deal with areas such as Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere, Atmospheric sciences, Ocean chemistry and Weathering as well as Carbon cycle.

His Climate change research incorporates themes from Deep sea, Climatology and Marine ecosystem. He works mostly in the field of Global warming, limiting it down to concerns involving Methane and, occasionally, Volcano, Total organic carbon, Sedimentary rock and Ecosystem. His research integrates issues of Iron cycle and Iron fertilization in his study of Biogeochemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Global Iron Connections Between Desert Dust, Ocean Biogeochemistry, and Climate (1841 citations)
  • The Geological Record of Ocean Acidification (616 citations)
  • Atmospheric Lifetime of Fossil Fuel Carbon Dioxide (443 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Carbon cycle, Climate change, Atmospheric sciences and Climatology. Andy Ridgwell works mostly in the field of Oceanography, limiting it down to topics relating to Biogeochemical cycle and, in certain cases, Biogeochemistry. As a member of one scientific family, Andy Ridgwell mostly works in the field of Carbon cycle, focusing on Earth science and, on occasion, Volcano.

His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Deep sea and Earth system science. His Atmospheric sciences study which covers Ice sheet that intersects with Antarctic ice sheet. His Climatology research incorporates elements of Glacial period and Climate model, Climate sensitivity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (41.73%)
  • Carbon cycle (28.87%)
  • Climate change (21.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Carbon cycle (28.87%)
  • Biogeochemical cycle (13.65%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (23.10%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Carbon cycle, Biogeochemical cycle, Atmospheric sciences, Oceanography and Organic matter. His research in Carbon cycle intersects with topics in Deep sea, Earth science, Biogeochemistry and Ice sheet. His Earth science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Volcano, Total organic carbon, Global change, Greenhouse gas and Ecological collapse.

His Biogeochemical cycle study combines topics in areas such as Weathering, Biosphere, Geologic record and Anoxic waters. The concepts of his Atmospheric sciences study are interwoven with issues in Atmosphere, Dissolved organic carbon, Effects of global warming on oceans and Ocean acidification. His research on Oceanography frequently links to adjacent areas such as Glacial period.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rapid ocean acidification and protracted Earth system recovery followed the end-Cretaceous Chicxulub impact. (30 citations)
  • Rapid ocean acidification and protracted Earth system recovery followed the end-Cretaceous Chicxulub impact. (30 citations)
  • Ice sheets matter for the global carbon cycle. (26 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Carbon dioxide

Andy Ridgwell focuses on Ecosystem, Carbon cycle, Earth science, Ecology and Plankton. The Carbon cycle study combines topics in areas such as Volcano, Marine life, Greenhouse gas and Weathering. His studies deal with areas such as Atmosphere, Sedimentary rock, Carbonate compensation depth, Ice sheet and Biogeochemistry as well as Weathering.

His study looks at the intersection of Sedimentary rock and topics like Ocean current with Global warming. His research in Earth science intersects with topics in Deep sea, Ocean acidification and Ecological collapse. His study in Plankton is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate change, Ecology and Marine ecosystem.
