SUMMARY:June 4 Pathogens Monitoring
DESCRIPTION:Our Summer 2026 Raritan monitoring team welcomes IEC-trained volunteer pathogens monitors to join us in the field for weekly field assessments and sampling. We absolutely cannot do this work without our *trained* volunteers!! \n\n\n\nWe have a limited number of volunteer slots every week (four maximum). In addition to data collection and other monitoring activities\, volunteers help us beautify our monitoring sites by picking up trash. We leave these non-bathing public access beaches cleaner than we find them! \n\n\n\nWe meet Thursday mornings between 7:45-8am at our first sampling site\, Riverside Park in Piscataway. The address for our first site is: 430 River Rd\, Piscataway\, NJ 08854. Additional site location information can be found here. We typically wrap up monitoring at our last site in Perth Amboy by 11 AM\, and often need volunteers to drop off samples with our Interstate Environmental Commission partners (meeting up at a mutually convenient location in New Jersey\, occasional trips to their Brooklyn lab) and our Rutgers Fahrenfeld lab partners in Piscataway. \n\n\n\nWe have waders in various sizes\, so no need to bring your own. HOWEVER – be sure you have shoes that you don’t mind getting wet/muddy and clothing appropriate for the weather.You will want to bring water/fluids to stay hydrated throughout the day\, and snacks for fuel. \n\n\n\nYou will need sunscreen\, long sleeves/pants for sun protection\, and a hat. \n\n\n\nThank you for volunteering with the LRWP!

SUMMARY:June 17 - Hidden Streams: Reviving the Modified Waterways of the Raritan
DESCRIPTION:Join the LRWP in welcoming Luke Tilton\, recent graduate of the Rutgers Masters of Landscape Architecture Graduate Program\, for a special talk about the Hidden Streams of the Raritan River. \n\n\n\nDuring this online (zoom) event\, Luke will describe his methodology for “finding” hidden streams in the Lower Raritan using historic maps of the watershed. He will provide details of his thesis work that includes landscape design strategies that might help “revive” the modified waterways of the Raritan Watershed. Luke’s work includes a special focus on the Cedar Brook in Plainfield and South Plainfield\, and it’s rather unusual course through (and under) these towns. \n\n\n\nPre-registration required. Registrants will receive login information a week prior to the talk.

SUMMARY:June 18 - Blue Green Infrastructure in Urban Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:Join the Lower Raritan Watershed Partnership and Lawrence Brook Watershed Partnership in welcoming Anne Gharaibeh\, Ph.D.\, for a presentation on how landscape architecture and urban design can serve as vital tools for resilience. Drawing on published design projects and research\, Dr. Gharaibeh will highlight the economic\, political\, ecological\, and social barriers that shape implementation\, as well as the practical challenges of embedding blue–green systems in urban environments. \n\n\n\nProfessor Gharaibeh will also emphasize the role of educators and practitioners in thinking systemically\, acting responsibly\, and fostering “wall-less studios” where students engage directly with communities and decision-makers. Such approaches underscore the potential for guiding urban transformations toward futures that are resilient\, equitable\, and profoundly human. \n\n\n\nBio:Anne Gharaibeh\, Ph.D.\, is a Visiting Professor of Landscape Architecture at Rutgers University and former Dean of the College of Architecture and Design at Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST). She holds graduate degrees in planning and landscape architecture from Texas Tech University and the University of Pennsylvania\, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Architecture with honors from JUST. \n\n\n\nHer teaching and research focus on urban resilience\, blue–green infrastructure\, and sustainable land-use planning\, and she has mentored students across the Middle East and the United States. In practice\, she has advised municipalities in Jordan and contributes to national initiatives through her role on the Economic Development and Modernization climate change and planning development teams of Jordan’s Royal Court. Her work has been recognized with the Shoman Prize for Researchers in Urban Planning and the Second Prize for the design of King Abdullah II Urban Park in Irbid\, Jordan. \n\n\n\nDr. Gharaibeh’s scholarship advances climate resilience through integrated approaches to landscape architecture and planning. She has published widely in international\, peer-reviewed journals on urban growth modeling\, climate-adaptive design\, ecological connectivity\, and regional economic resilience. Her pioneering application of artificial intelligence to urban growth assessment is widely cited\, offering innovative tools for data-driven planning. \n\n\n\nAlongside her academic research\, Dr. Gharaibeh has led applied projects on urban redevelopment\, heritage conservation\, and climate adaptation for municipalities in Jordan. Her recent work explores rain gardens\, blue–green corridors\, and spatial planning frameworks for resilience\, in collaboration with national agencies\, the United Nations\, and international academic networks. Recognized for bridging science\, design\, and community engagement\, she continues to pursue cross-disciplinary partnerships that deliver practical and equitable solutions for climate-resilient urban futures.

SUMMARY:July 2 Pathogens Monitoring
DESCRIPTION:Our Summer 2026 Raritan monitoring team welcomes IEC-trained volunteer pathogens monitors to join us in the field for weekly field assessments and sampling. We absolutely cannot do this work without our *trained* volunteers!! \n\n\n\nWe have a limited number of volunteer slots every week (four maximum). In addition to data collection and other monitoring activities\, volunteers help us beautify our monitoring sites by picking up trash. We leave these non-bathing public access beaches cleaner than we find them! \n\n\n\nWe meet Thursday mornings between 7:45-8am at our first sampling site\, Riverside Park in Piscataway. The address for our first site is: 430 River Rd\, Piscataway\, NJ 08854. Additional site location information can be found here. We typically wrap up monitoring at our last site in Perth Amboy by 11 AM\, and often need volunteers to drop off samples with our Interstate Environmental Commission partners (meeting up at a mutually convenient location in New Jersey\, occasional trips to their Brooklyn lab) and our Rutgers Fahrenfeld lab partners in Piscataway. \n\n\n\nWe have waders in various sizes\, so no need to bring your own. HOWEVER – be sure you have shoes that you don’t mind getting wet/muddy and clothing appropriate for the weather.You will want to bring water/fluids to stay hydrated throughout the day\, and snacks for fuel. \n\n\n\nYou will need sunscreen\, long sleeves/pants for sun protection\, and a hat. \n\n\n\nThank you for volunteering with the LRWP!
