Expertise: Civil engineering; environmental engineering; agricultural engineering; environmental science; water resources engineering; agricultural water management; pollution control; wastewater treatment; decision support systems; treatment wetlands; integrated constructed wetlands; hydrology; storm water management; sustainable flood retention basins; sustainable drainage systems; permeable pavement systems; ponds; capillary suction time.
Prof. Miklas Scholz is an internationally recognized researcher in water, wastewater treatment, constructed wetlands, sustainable drainage systems, and nature-based solutions. He has published four books and more than 300 journal articles, with approximately 10,700 citations, an h-index of 51, and an i10-index of 195. A bibliometric analysis places him among the top five globally cited authors in constructed-wetland research.
He has led major international research projects, including the €7 million EU H2020 WATERAGRI project and the €1.52 million JPI Water RAINSOLUTIONS project. His research has contributed significantly to the development of international and national guidelines for integrated constructed wetlands (ICWs), sustainable flood retention basins (SFRBs), and sustainable drainage systems (SuDS).
Prof. Scholz has particularly contributed to the design and implementation of ICW guidelines in Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and England, including applications for agricultural runoff. His work has also supported the international adoption of ICWs and hybrid SuDS in Europe, the USA, and China.
A major focus of his research is the sustainable management and reuse of water resources, particularly wastewater treatment and recycling as strategies to address increasing water scarcity, irrigation demand, and environmental challenges.
