While nitrate levels are stabilizing across central Iowa for now, a new effort at IIHR—Hydroscience and Engineering at the University of Iowa is underway to both detect and forecast nitrate levels along Iowa waterways.

The Linn County Board of Conservation has directed $100,000 toward equipment for IIHR’s statewide water quality monitoring program as part of a broader allocation of bond dollars.

In Iowa’s competitive governor’s race, farmers are raising longstanding concerns over water quality and agriculture's role in ultimately reducing the state’s cancer rates.

Many Iowa homeowners are concerned about their health and are looking into reverse osmosis to filter out contaminants such as nitrate.

The system will be developed over a three-year timeline, featuring two products that can make predictions ranging from one day ahead of time to eight weeks.

Researchers at IIHR—Hydroscience and Engineering at the University of Iowa are building an artificial intelligence system that will find patterns between extensive NASA satellite data and Iowa water quality sensors to forecast nitrate fluctuations.
