Sun Ruyong, male, Han nationality, is a native of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province. He graduated from the Biological Department of Beijing Normal University in 1951 and obtained a doctoratedegree from Moscow University in 1958. Sun is an ecologist.
Sun's research achievements include proving that there are geological variations in static metabolic rates between two groups only 110 kilometers away from each other; he used experimental data from 8 seasons to reach this conclusion. Sun also explored the variation of the metabolic rate of Meriones unguiculatus against environmental temperature and discovered the difference in variation rates between static metabolic rates and average daily metabolic rates.
Sun later proposed a new index of constant temperature capability of constant temperature animals and demonstrated that the after-embryo growth of body temperature adjustment of a formative hedgeshrew could be divided into three phases.
Sun taught at Beijing Normal University and was elected as an academician to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1993.
