| Title | Name | picture | General Information |
| Professor | Jacqueline A Aitkenhead-Peterson |  |
PhD Natural Resources, MSc Soil Science BSc Environmental Science |
| Lab Manager | Nina Stanley |  |
BS Horticulure |
| Visiting Scientist | Santhy Ayaluru |  |
PhD, Environmental Chemistry, MSc Environmental Chemistry |
| Graduate Student | Meredith Bilek (PhD) |  |
Graduate Diversity Fellowship. Meredith is involved in sampling and analyzing groundwater in San Antonio caves and investigating irrigation water quality impact on DOC and DON release |
| Graduate Student | De'Etra Young (PhD)** |  |
Dee works out of the spatial sciences lab but part of her project is to quantify nutrient load from impervious surfaces in twelve independent watersheds in the Bryan/College Station region. We have also investigated infiltration of pervious concrete and our next step is to monitor retention of nutrients within pore spaces of the pervious concrete. |
| Graduate Student | Cara Harclerode (MS/PhD)* |  |
(IMC Fertilizer Fellowship) Cara samples 14 sub-watersheds within the Carter Creek watershed to investigate geographical source of E.coli in the watershed and determine if E.coli counts are related to any nutrient source. |
| Graduate Student | Leon Holgate (MS)* |  |
(Soil & Crop Science Departmental Assistantship) Leon will investigate the impact of different irrigation water (domestic, rain harvested and grey water) on soil nutrient cycling and microbial diversity. |
| Undergraduate Student | Sarah Robinson | Sarah has been investigating retention & release of DOC and DON in soil layers from litter manipulated plots in the Sikfokut Forest Hungary. | |
