John Tiedemann is the Assistant Dean in the Monmouth University School of Science and Director of the University’s Marine and Environmental Biology and Policy Program. He currently teaches courses in marine and environmental biology and policy and coastal zone management. Mr. Tiedemann received a B.S. in Physics and Planetary Sciences from Upsala College in 1976 and an M.S. in Biological Oceanography from the Florida Institute of Technology in 1980. A lifelong resident of New Jersey, he has been professionally employed in the marine and environmental field since 1979 and has worked in the public and private sectors as well as academia throughout his career. His work has addressed a breadth of marine and environmental science and management issues in New Jersey’s coastal waters including monitoring and management of ocean dumping activities, assessments of the impacts of coastal development on water quality and living marine resources, implementation of best management practices for controlling sources of coastal pollution, preservation of traditional maritime industries, and conservation and management of marine recreational fisheries. When not at work he can be found surfing or fishing along New Jersey’s northern coast. DANIELLE KREEGER Danielle Kreeger, Ph.D., is an ecologist with more than 35 years of experience working as a research scientist and educator. She serves as Senior Science Director for the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary where she crafts and leads collaborative teams that address key scientific needs for the watershed. For example, she was the main architect of the Mid-Atlantic Coastal Wetland Assessment, Delaware Estuary Living Shoreline Initiative, Freshwater Mussel Recovery Program, Technical Report for the Delaware Estuary and Basin. She coordinates the estuary’s Science and Technicsl Advisory Committee and organized the biennial Delaware Estuary Science Summit. Danielle also serves as an associate research professor at The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University where she advises graduate students and performs research. Danielle’s main research interests include the physiological ecology, ecosystem services, restoration and societal benefits of bivalve shellfish spanning freshwater and marine systems. She also works more broadly to develop nature-based tactics (e.g., living shorelines) to sustain vital ecosystem services in the face of climate change and development. |
