This series introduces the basic physics and physiology crucial for the understanding of decompression diving. The series is fundamental for all technical divers, but it will also greatly interest recreational divers looking to improve their general understanding of SCUBA diving.
Basic concepts such as Dalton’s Law of partial pressures and cardiovascular physiology are covered, which then transition into decompression modelling, including Haldanean approaches and gradient factors.
The series then progresses into more practical concepts for planning and conducting decompression dives in a pragmatic, flexible and safe way.
