Key Equations

$$\bar{d} = \frac{V}{A} = \frac{1.335 \times 10^{18} \text{ m}^3}{3.61 \times 10^{14} \text{ m}^2} \approx 3688 \text{ m}$$
$$\frac{\partial S}{\partial t} = -\nabla \cdot (\mathbf{u} S) + \frac{(E - P - R) \cdot S_0}{h_{\text{mix}}}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
