SCUBA diving operations
SCUBA diving involves using a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus to explore beneath the surface. Divers wear a wetsuit or drysuit for thermal protection, a mask for clear vision, fins for efficient movement, and a tank of compressed air or special gas mixtures to breathe underwater. They plan dives carefully, monitor their air supply and depth, and ascend slowly to avoid risks like decompression sickness. Proper training and safety procedures ensure that divers can explore underwater environments, observe marine life, or conduct research effectively and safely.
