Jens Kiesel is a Hydrologist at the Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB). Jens has a long expertise on environmental modelling which he has applied in research and international consulting. His modelling experience includes hydrology, hydraulics, erosion and sediment transport as well as habitat modelling on various scales and ecoregions.
