Harmful cyanobacterial blooms are continuously formed in water systems such as reservoirs and lakes around the world. Geosmin 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) produced by some species of cyanobacteria have caused odor problems drinking Sanbe Reservoir Japan. Field observations were conducted for four years (2015–2019) to investigate cause this musty odor. It was found that geosmin Dolichospermum cras...

Abstract. Coastal lagoons are important sites for nitrogen (N) removal via sediment burial and denitrification. Blooms of heterocystous cyanobacteria may diminish N retention as dinitrogen (N2) fixation offsets atmospheric losses We measured N2 in the Curonian Lagoon, Europe's largest coastal lagoon, to better understand factors controlling context seasonal changes phytoplankton community compo...
