Air vs. Odor Movement: What Every Handler Needs to Know – with Lindsay Waldrop, PhD

REGISTRATION NOW OPEN: https://k9nosework.com/product/webinar-air-vs-odor-movement-what-every-handler-needs-to-know/

Understanding how odor moves is essential for handlers who want to accurately interpret their dog’s behavior during a search. While air movement plays a role, it is not the same as odor movement—and confusing the two can lead to misreads in the field.

This webinar breaks down the fundamentals of odor behavior, including plume formation and odor availability, and explores how air movement influences—but does not define—odor movement. Handlers will also learn practical ways to visualize airflow so you can better predict and understand how odor is actually traveling in your search environment.
