No, but there are reduced bottom times compared to sea level diving due to the reduced pressure when you surface. Since ambient pressure is lower at altitude, a comparable nitrogen load will result in easier bubble formation in your body.

The major certifying agencies offer courses in altitude diving. Get the course if you are planning to dive at altitude, or read their course books if you are just inquisitive.

The altitude at which rising air reaches the dew point temperature is the?

The altitude at which rising air reaches the dew point temperature is the lifting condensation level (LCL). At the LCL, the air reaches saturation and condensation begins, leading to the formation of clouds.


How can one determine the saturation level in a given substance?

To determine the saturation level in a substance, you can conduct a saturation test by adding the substance to a solvent until no more can dissolve. The point at which no more can dissolve is the saturation level.


How do you calculate the lifting condensation level?

The lifting condensation level is calculated by finding the altitude at which an air parcel reaches its dew point temperature and condensation begins. This level is determined by lifting the parcel of air adiabatically until it reaches saturation.


What term described the level of saturation?

relative humidity Humidity is the term that describes the level of air saturation.


What is the difference between a negative the altitude and a positive altitude?

Altitude describes an object's position relative to sea level. An object in a position higher than sea level would have a positive altitude, sea level would have an altitude of zero, and any object below sea level would have a negative altitude.


What does it mean if saturation level is 70 percent?

example: say saturation level of sugar in water is 70 percent, if the solution is 70 percent sugar, it is saturated


What is the saturation level of ammonia in water?

The saturation level of ammonia in water depends on temperature and pH. At 20°C and pH 7, the saturation level of ammonia in water is around 37 ppm. At higher temperatures or pH levels, the saturation level can increase.


What level do you get the diving suit on panfu?

What is normal saturation?

"Oxygen saturation" refers to the fraction of hemoglobin that is saturated by oxygen. It is related to the partial pressure of oxygen in the inspired air and, therefore, to altitude. Normal oxygen saturation in an otherwise healthy individual at sea level is > 95%. Low oxygen saturations can be found in a wide variety of lung diseases.


What do you call the height above sea level point on the earths surface?

It is called altitude. It is typically expressed as ASL (above mean sea level, or MSL). However, it can also be specified as AGL (Above the local Ground Level).


What is lake tahoe's altitude?
