ALTITUDE DIVING

The atmospheric pressure is lower at high altitudes than at sea level.

After traveling to a higher altitude, the diver will have additional nitro-

gen in his body, compared to the equilibrium situation at the original

altitude. This “additional” nitrogen is released gradually in time and equi-

librium is reached. It is recommended that you acclimate to the new

altitude by waiting at least three hours before making a dive.
