Jan Friesen
Jan Friesen is a research associate in the Department of Catchment Hydrology at the Helmholtz Centre of Environmental Research – UFZ. He has received his Ph.D. from the Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands and his diploma (M.Sc.) from the University of Bonn, Germany.
His research focuses on ecohydrology, remote sensing, and sensor development, where he has authored more than 40 publications in international peer-reviewed journals and book chapters. He has extensive experience in semi-arid and data scarce countries such as Ghana, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, and Oman and his work has a strong connection to water management issues. He has worked as a guest editor to several special issues on water management. Currently, he is involved in several projects in Oman including research on submarine groundwater research and on decentralized waste water management.
Since 2014 he is a member of the Arab-German Young Academy of Sciences and Humanities (AGYA) and since 2017 he serves as the German Co-President of AGYA.
