Geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol production in a major aqueduct system
The California Aqueduct supplies water from Northern California to Southern California, dividing into the West and East branches above Pyramid Lake. In July and August 1990, elevated geosmin levels (10-48 ng/l) occurred in the East Branch of the aqueduct, which extends along the southern edge of the Mojave Desert.

Harmful and Harmless Soil-Dwelling Fungi Indicate Microhabitat Suitability for Off-Host Ixodid Ticks
Following blood meals or questing bouts, hard ticks (Ixodidae) must locate moist off-host microhabitats as refuge. Soil-dwelling fungi, including entomopathogenic Beauveria bassiana (Bb), thrive in moist microhabitats.

Abstract Microbially derived geosmin causes an earthy off‐flavor in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, produced in land‐based systems, placing these products at risk for rejection. Therefore, a study was conducted to investigate the geosmin sensory threshold in market‐size Atlantic salmon.

This study investigated future operational costs in water treatment (WT) plants. Random forest modeling projected 3–5 times more abundant cyanobacteria by 2100 due to climate change. Increased microcystins demanded substantially more activated carbon and, as a result, WT costs could rise to $6–22/household/month.

Interlaboratory comparison of geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol in municipal tap water
An interlaboratory comparison (“round-robin”) for geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) was carried out between six laboratories of the Ontario Water Works Research Consortium (OWWRC). Municipal tap water was found to be a suitable medium for distribution of samples. To test stability, geosmin and MIB were added to tap water and stored at 2–4°C.

Biodegradation of 2-Methylisoborneol by Oligotrophic Bacterium Isolated from a Eutrophied Lake
2-Methylisoborneol (MIB) is one of several causative compounds responsible for musty odor problems of drinking water. The purpose of this study was to investigate the kinetics of MIB biodegradation and utilization of other organics by Bacillus sp.

The Drinking Water Taste and Odor Wheel for the Millennium: Beyond Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol
The “Taste and Odor Wheel” developed over the last 15 years has been updated to include new compounds identified in the eight classes of odorants, four tastes, and one mouth feel/nose feel category.

Sustainable and Reusable Methylated Wood Waste Powder: An Eco-Friendly Solution for Efficient Removal of 2-Methylisoborneol from Water [PDF]
This study introduces a sustainable adsorbent derived from methylated wood waste for the efficient removal of 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB), a pervasive taste and odor compound that compromises water quality and challenges treatment processes.
