Research Projects – RU on the Raritan

Part of the mission of the Rutgers Raritan River Consortium is to apply Rutgers’ research, programming and resources in collaboration with other Raritan partners to advance improvements in regional planning, policy and decision-making that positively affects the Raritan region.  RU on the Raritan showcases research and data development by Rutgers’ faculty, staff and students on Raritan concerns.

Please note:  If you are a Rutgers affiliate and are doing or have done work in the Raritan, we would like to showcase it here.  This is a resource for your fellow academics as well as for Raritan stakeholders.  Each post includes a brief description of Rutgers/Raritan focused work with links to related materials or websites, an image, and details of who to contact for more information.  Simply send an email to raritan@ejb.rutgers.edu with “RU on the Raritan” in the subject line and include the above information as an attached Word document.
