Figure
A dive to 30 m for 20 minutes puts the scuba diver at risk of nitrogen narcosis and decompression illness. The elephant seal can dive to 1 km for 1 hour without risk of either condition
Figure
Effect of depth on partial pressures of nitrogen and oxygen
Figure
Ama divers do repeated breath hold dives with little time in between for recovery
Figure
Effect of hyperventilation on breath holding
Figure
Bubbles formed on decompression are visible in tear fluid beneath contact lens
Figure
Amateur scuba divers
Figure
Oxygen rebreathers allow divers to breathe 100% oxygen but carbon dioxide accumulation can be a problem
