Professor in Urban Hydrology, Hydro-Informatics & Water Resources Management
Dr Christos K. Makropoulos is a Professor at the School of Civil Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), the Director of NTUA’s Laboratory of Applied Hydraulics and the Director of NTUA’s Institute for Smart, Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure (ISSRI).
He is an adjunct Professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), the co-Editor in Chief of Urban Water Journal (Taylor & Francis) and a member of the Editorial Board of the Journal of Hydroinformatics (IWA Publishing), the Editorial Board of Water (MDPI) and the Editorial Board of Discover Cities (Springer Nature).
Prof. Makropoulos is an expert in hydroinformatic tools and methods for water management, water-energy systems analysis and environmental systems protection.
He has worked extensively on distributed infrastructure, critical infrastructure protection and whole cyber-physical system modelling for digital twins.
His work addresses issues of sustainability and resilience, water in the circular economy, risk and security analysis, uncertainty quantification, multi-objective evolutionary optimization, decision support, long-term policy scenario development and systems stress-testing.
He leads the Urban Water and Hydroinformatics Group at NTUA, which comprises of more than 25 researchers and has successfully completed more than 35 international research projects, He has authored more than 250 journal and conference papers, as well as several book chapters (with ≥ 8500 citations, H-index = 44, i10 = 130, according to Google Scholar) and he is a co-author of the international textbook ‘Urban Drainage’.
He is a Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy and a Fellow of the UK Royal Geographical Society.
Prof. Makropoulos serves as evaluator of proposals and project monitor for the European Commission (REA, CINEA, EASME, DG R&I) on water management, circular economy, critical infrastructure security, urban and regional development, smart cities, bio-economy and the Climate Mission.
