Sabrina Schwarz

Sabrina Schwarz is a researcher at the Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and River Research (BOKU - University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna). Her work focuses on sediment transport dynamics in alpine rivers, climate change impacts on fluvial processes, and flood risk management.

She contributes to projects like PlasticFreeDanube (plastic accumulation in rivers) and RAISE (alpine sediment processes). Her recent publications analyze bedload transport velocities, sediment budgets, and climate adaptation strategies for river systems.

Research Trends: 2020-2025 articles emphasize sediment monitoring, floodplain dynamics, plastic pollution in rivers, and climate resilience in alpine catchments.
