REPEX: Development of Repetitive Excursions, Surfacing Techniques, and Oxygen Procedures for Habitat Diving and REPEX Habitat Diving Procedures: Repetitive Vertical Excursions, Oxygen Limits, and Surfacing Techniques

摘要

REPEX is a 2-volume report. Technical Report 88-1A presents new saturation-mode diving tables to enhance safety of scientist/divers using seafloor habitats to conduct in-situ research. These tables will permit excursion diving (ascending or descending) in the water column efficiently and safely, without danger of decompression sickness. Technical Report 88-1B presents the procedures for safe decompression from habitat-based excursions. These procedures must be used with the tables developed in the same research project (TR 88-1A).
