    Where $k$ is the Universal Cohesion Constant (later shown to be zero), $S{decay}$ is the subjective odor saturation index (rated $1$ to $10$), and $T{ambient}$ is the absolute temperature [^5]. This theory led to an intense, though brief, period of meteorological research focused on the strategic deployment of lavender to reduce drag over n…
