Lawrence Brook is a tributary of the Raritan River in Middlesex County, New Jersey in the United States.〔Gertler, Edward. ''Garden State Canoeing'', Seneca Press, 2002. ISBN 0-9605908-8-9〕 ==Course== Originally a stream, its course now includes man-made lakes created by dams built in the 19th and 20th centuries: Deans Pond (South Brunswick), Davidsons Mill Pond (South Brunswick), Farrington Lake (South Brunswick, North Brunswick and East Brunswick), Mill Pond (Milltown), and Westons Mill Pond (Milltown, East Brunswick, North Brunswick and New Brunswick). Its lowest section, near the Raritan River, is tidal; it hosts marine wildlife and is regarded as a coastal area. Its drainage basin, the Lawrence Brook watershed, is a area, identified by the USGS code ''HUC 02030105130''. At the stretch at Weston's Mill Pond, Lawrence Brook crosses Rutgers University's Cook Campus, along the vegetable research Farm, the Equine Research farm, Rutgers Gardens and Helyar forest. Though not obvious from the roadways, Lawrence Brook is a wildlife corridor, a bird migration area and a highly sensitive body of water. Power boats, except with an electric motor, are not permitted on the brook. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawrence Brook」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
