Mario Klösch

Mario Klösch is a Researcher at the Institute of Hydraulic Engineering, Hydraulics and River Research within the Department of Agricultural Sciences at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna. His work focuses on hydraulic engineering, river restoration, and sediment transport dynamics in alpine and transboundary river systems.

• Research Interests: Hydromorphology, sediment management, ecosystem services in river corridors, gravel transport mechanics, floodplain rehabilitation, and vegetation-hydrology interactions.

Recent Publication Trends: His 2024-2023 articles emphasize full-scale vegetation deformation modeling, tracer velocity analysis, cross-border river restoration monitoring, and sediment balance studies in the Rhine and Danube basins. Key methodologies include field measurements, numerical simulations, and hydromorphological frameworks.

• Scientific Awards: Recipient of the 2011 Marshall Plan Scholarship at the University of Mississippi.

Community Services: Active as reviewer for journals like Journal of Hydrology and Earth Surface Processes and Landforms</>. He contributes to EU projects (Interreg, HyMoCARES) and national initiatives addressing river management.
