Diving Science

Diving science involves understanding how the body responds to underwater pressures, gas absorption, and decompression. When divers breathe compressed air at depth, nitrogen dissolves into tissues; ascending too quickly can cause nitrogen bubbles, leading to decompression sickness. Proper planning, including respecting depth limits and safety stops, helps the body safely eliminate gases. Additionally, factors like buoyancy control, breathing techniques, and environmental conditions influence safety and experience. Overall, diving science ensures that divers can enjoy the underwater world responsibly while minimizing health risks through knowledge, proper equipment use, and adherence to safety procedures.
