His SFRB concept assesses the multi-functionality of all large water bodies with particular reference to their flood
and diffuse pollution control potential. A novel and unbiased classification system allows all stakeholders to clearly
define the purpose of a water body that can be classed as an SFRB. Communication among stakeholders
regarding the most appropriate management of SFRB is greatly enhanced. Moreover, the SFRB concept
addresses the need to assess the flood control potential of all European water bodies as part of new legislation.
His research has led to the incorporation of findings into national and international guidelines on wetland and
sustainable drainage systems. The greatest impact has been made in the area of ICW in Ireland, Northern Ireland,
Scotland and England. Prof. Scholz contributed to the design guidelines of wetland systems as a research
consultant. The guidelines assist managers in all aspects of ICW planning, design, construction, maintenance and
management. Moreover, specific guidelines were written for ICW used by farmers to treat farm yard runoff in
Scotland and Northern Ireland, and Ireland. These guidelines are specifically mentioned in national legislation.
The guidelines on SFRB and ICW have led to the international uptake of both the SFRB and ICW concepts and the
researched hybrid SuDS. This work has particularly benefited the British Isles, and Central and Northern Europe.
For example, ICW are now being constructed in Belgium, Germany, the United States of America and China.

relevant research case studies.”
***** Review Published on Amazon by AH on 5 November 2015
Scholz M. (2010), Wetland Systems – Storm Water Management Control. Springer Verlag, Berlin, Germany.
“Storm water management control with wetland systems to control pollution is the central theme of this textbook
written predominantly for students and academics in water and environmental engineering science. However, also
practitioners working as consultants should find suitable case studies relevant for their contracts.
This book has become one of the standard textbooks in urban water management and complements similar books
on wetlands by the same author, which have been published by Elsevier in 2006 and 2015. Therefore, this
Springer book should be read in parallel!”

and urban planning.
The second edition has been fully updated and revised. Moreover, more research studies of relevance across the
world have been added.”
***** Review Published on Amazon by AH on 25 November 2015
“It is not very often that a single text covers both the fundamental and applied aspects of a subject area, while also
including the state of art regarding its research. This book does this, and in a very comprehensive and interesting
manner, using an integrated approach. It covers water management across the water cycle; with detailed emphasis
on wetland science and engineering supported with numerous case studies and research findings. The book, which
is the second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated with latest research findings; and it will be highly
relevant for students, academics and practitioners in the broad area of water and environmental engineering.”
***** Review Published on Amazon by an Amazon customer on 5 December 2015
“This is a very comprehensive book on wetland systems used for water pollution control. It comprises standard
water, wastewater and storm water treatment and management chapters as well as plenty of chapters summarizing
the combination of preliminary and predominately primary, secondary and tertiary treatment technologies with
wetland systems in order to reduce the land availability costs. Some chapters cover interesting and well-timed
applies case studies associated with constructed wetlands and relevant remediation techniques for diffuse and
runoff pollution control as well as the latest research findings on wetland engineering science. Eradication of critical
water quality problems linked with farm constructed wetlands, integrated constructed wetlands, constructed
20
treatment wetlands, and storm water ponds, and other sustainable biological filtration and biodegradation
techniques associated with public health engineering are elucidated.
It makes this book highly relevant for students and practitioners as well as academics working not just in civil and
environmental engineering but also in related fields including environmental science, civil and environmental
engineering, ecology, microbiology, agriculture and urban planning. This book is essential for the engineers and
researchers working in the relevant fields of water industry, local authorities, governmental organizations and
nongovernmental bodies in order to develop design, operation, and management of wetlands. The research
projects are multidisciplinary, holistic, investigational, and modeling-oriented. Furthermore, consulting engineers
should be proficient to apply sensible design suggestion and to refer to a large multiplicity of sensible international
case studies, together with large-scale field studies.
The second edition has been fully updated and revised. This revised edition has both a more comprehensive and a
wide view of the subject field. Further aspects have been included to some chapters to describe technological
advances in treatment plants and scientific advancement in fields’ for instance molecular microbiology. In addition,
the subject fields have been wide to explain more multidisciplinary technique, for instance the ecosystem services
model, to unravel engineering science challenge with a holistic approach. So as to comprehend this innovative
technique, both renew and extension of the recent content was requisite. Hence the second edition has been
lengthened, making it more competitive in a marketplace where booklover have more option and suppleness
caused by development in technology and the open access policy.
The revised and expanded book highlights vast water and environmental engineering feature related to the
drainage and treatment of wastewater and storm water, describing an eloquent summary of the complicated
treatment systems and general design issues concerned. Moreover, more research studies of relevance across the
world have been added.”
Review submitted to Elsevier by Dr Muhammad Aqeel Ashraf, Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Science & Natural
Resources, University Malaysia Sabah, Malaysia, on 7 December 2015
The present book is the second edition of Wetland Systems to Control Urban Runoff written by Prof. Miklas Scholz
and published by Elsevier (2006). The book is comprehensive, up to date, carefully structured and well written. The
current edition attempts to cover all aspects of the designs and operations of wetland systems. It is one of the most
in-depth textbooks of wetland systems published so far. In the 524 pages of the book, the reader will get a wealth
of information which makes the book worth to be bought. The topics of the book are nicely covered and also have a
detailed analysis of various aspects. It covers the design, operation, maintenance, water quality monitoring of
traditional and novel of wetland systems. Also, it involves the analysis of asset performance, modeling of treatment
processes and performances of existing infrastructure, the sustainability and economic issues. It successfully
integrates both natural and constructed wetlands. The drainage techniques of traditional water and wastewater
systems as parts of integration are used to treat surface runoff and associated diffuse pollution. It is composed of
38 chapters: chapters 1-4 are an introduction to water quality management and water and wastewater treatment
fundamentals. Chapters 5-9 involves review preliminary and predominantly primary treatment units that can be
combined with wetland systems; chapters 10-15 summarize predominantly secondary and tertiary treatment
technologies that can be used in combination with wetland technologies or as alternatives in cases where land
availability is restricted due to costs. Chapters 16-17 present nonessential traditional technologies; chapters 18-19
cover the microbiological and disinfection issues relevant to treatment of wetlands. Chapter 20 introduces wetland
science and biological treatment processes of different wetland types based on microbial biodegradation;
furthermore, chapter 21 highlights sludge treatment and disposal options that should be considered for sludge
obtained from wetland systems. Finally, chapters 22-38 emphasis mainly on a wide variety of case studies related
to constructed wetlands and associated technologies for runoff and diffuses pollution treatment. Moreover, they
introduce wetlands such as sustainable flood control basins used for both diffuse pollution and flood control
purposes.
Prof. Scholz, a famous professional civil engineer, is successful in writing a high-standard textbook. This textbook
is highly recommended for all who want to know more about the design and operation of wetland systems. Overall,
Wetlands for Water Pollution Control will have a broad range of readers including students, practitioners and
researchers.

Part 6: Teaching
6.1. Reflection on Teaching
This section briefly reflects on Prof. Scholz’s qualifications concerning teaching activities focusing on tuition and
education. Evidence of his long-term ability to support and facilitate student learning and to reflect on his teaching
practice using knowledge about teaching and learning is self-evident, considering that he successfully teaches in
different capacities for almost 20 years.
Effort to develop his teaching practice through cooperation and interaction with other colleagues has also been
demonstrated. This is particularly self-evident, where he refers to activities during his appointments at The
University of Edinburgh (as a senior lecturer) and at The University of Salford as the Chair in Civil Engineering.
His teaching and related educational activities are directly informed by latest research in the subject matter
concerned. Particularly his postgraduate students appreciate a teaching style based on research-informed
workshops, integrated design exercises and dynamic group work activities. Unless absolutely necessary, he avoids
giving standard lectures based on countless PowerPoint slides with little student staff-interactions.
His personal basic teaching approach is based on a modern and liberal philosophy to learning, where taking
initiative and responsibility are high on the agenda. His philosophy is informed by knowledge about teaching and
learning, which he acquired through formal training in teaching in higher education and through knowledge and
methodology development in my subject area.
His CV comprises relevant evidence, which is directly related to my teaching, education and supervision expertise.
Important aspects of my own basic approach to undergraduate and particularly postgraduate teaching are outlined
where appropriate. His reflection is based on personal experience of teaching and learning in higher education on
all levels including research studies undertaking by groups of students (all levels).
His plans for the future are to continue with his unique teaching style, but to be guided by my more teaching-active
colleagues to pitch his teaching at the right level, and to adjust to new developments in the education sector. The
overall aim is to optimise student feedback and student progression.

6.4. Recent Peer-observation and Student Feedback
“[…] The session appeared to be well planned and was structured according to module guide which demonstrated
a consistent format across the course which helps students to know what is expected of them and this is especially
important given that the sessions rely on them to have produced pieces of work and engaged with specific learning
materials. You explained both the structure of the session (including my presence in it) and how this fit into the
64
wider learning for the module. I really liked how all the elements contributed to the summative assessment for the
module and students could see their progression towards this.
[…] I liked the use of role play to get the students thinking about their project and being forced to think about
specific questions that they perhaps haven’t previously. This will ultimately enhance their learning and their final
submissions. Having printed roles for each of the participants helped to focus this and student participation was at
its strongest in this part of the sessions.
[…] Overall, I felt you had a good rapport with the students and it being a small group you were able to effectively
involve all the students at various points using a range of strategies. You are clearly extremely knowledgeable in
your field, but also passionate and that comes across in your teaching which is great for students to see. […]”
Dr Dan Redfearn on teaching Water and wastewater Systems (MEng course) by Prof. Miklas Scholz in November
