Amitava  Chatterjee    RES SOIL SCNTST /ARSUserFiles/57286/Chatterjee_Amitava.jpg
 I am a research soil scientist in the Soil, Water, and Air Unit at NLAE. My research area is focused on soil nutrient dynamics in agroecosystem. I obtained my graduate degree in Agriculture and Master in Soil Science from India. I completed my doctoral degree from University of Wyoming in 2007. I held couple of postdoc positions at The Ohio State University, University of California-Riverside, and Washington State University before joining as a faculty at North Dakota State University in 2011. Before ARS at Ames, I worked for a year as a research soil scientist at National Sedimentation Lab, Oxford, MS. Besides my career, I enjoy reading, watching movies and cooking.
