IIHR research staff and students surveyed the Iowa River with a multibeam echosounder just one month after the June 2008 flood. Data from this survey are used to create detailed images of the river bottom.

The Iowa Flood Center hosts a range of research projects at The University of Iowa and Iowa State University. Most of these are funded directly by the Center; others are funded by the National Science Foundation and other funding agencies.
