Professor Olaf Jensen and his research team have finished installing a streaming camera system at the Island Farm Weir fish ladder to help understand the impact of dams and weirs on spawning migrations of American Shad (Alosa sapidissima) and river herring (A. pseudoharengus and A. aestivalis). The fish cam project is made possible by a mini-grant from the Rutgers Raritan River Consortium with assistance from the New Jersey American Water Company and the New Jersey Water Supply Authority.
