Download or read book Bibliography on Diving and Diving Safety for a Scientific Diving Program written by Margaret A. Rioux and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diving, scientific diving, and diver safety are specialized subject areas not generally well-represented in even the largest of academic libraries, largely because of difficulties in locating appropriate items to include in the collection. However, in order to adequately fulfill his/her responsibilities, the Diving Safety Officer of a scientific diving program needs easy access to a broad range of books, reports, and journals covering all aspects of diving. This bibliography outlines a comprehensive collection appropriate to the needs of a scientific diving program in a research or academic institution. Items are grouped in broad subject areas corresponding to various aspects of the diving program. Both title and author indexes are also included.

Book excerpt: The Alaska Department of Fish and Game conducts several dive projects throughout the state that require the use of scuba. Dive projects may involve work in marine and freshwater environments and may require scientific or non-scientific diving. Scientific dive projects usually consist of observation or collecting biological and habitat data for commercially important fish or invertebrate populations. This type of diving often requires only the use of measuring tools, collection bags, and means to write or record data under water. The department’s scientific diving program qualifies for a scientific exemption of commercial diving regulations administered under the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The department also conducts non-scientific dive projects that do not qualify for scientific exemption. These projects may include installation and maintenance of fish weirs that cross streams and rivers. Although fish weirs are designed to allow collection of biological data for salmon and other freshwater and anadromous fish, the installation and maintenance of these structures requires underwater work that goes beyond the definition of scientific diving. Another non-scientific diving category the department recognizes is ship husbandry or diving beneath and around department vessels to observe and inspect hulls and equipment not visible from above the water surface. All dive projects conducted by the department fall under the authority of the Dive Safety Board, which is the governing body that maintains this document, establishes the department’s dive safety policy, reviews all dive projects for safety considerations, and approves all dive-related training, equipment, and practices.

Download or read book Diving Deeper into SCUBA Science written by Costantino Balestra and published by Acrodacrolivres. This book was released on 2017-04-14 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You will find in this book some valuable and reliable lessons about safe diving The editors of and authors of this book are a cadre of scientists and physicians with broad experience and knowledge of diving physiology and decompression theory. As is often the case, it requires a group effort to succeed in advancing practical knowledge. The colloquialism "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts" is often true and the PHYPODE Reasearch Group epitomizes this concept. By logically grouping the various elements of diving science and medicine with provocative "food for thought" sections, the text offers valuable lessons to those interested in the current state of diving. Despite nearly 170 years of reasearch, the fundamenal nature of decompression stress remains elusive. As is well outlined in this book, great advances have been made to the practical elements allowing for safe diving. Nonetheless, there are glaring voids of knowledge related to the nature of bubble nucleation, its consequences and methods to ameliorate risk. The synergy exhibited in this text not only provides a foundation for what is known, it offers a glimpse of where research is taking us. - Professor Stephen R. Thom, Dept. of Emergency Medicine, University of Maryland School of Medicine This is a book for all diving fans who want to discover their passion through a scientific approach. EXCERPT Decompression illnesses (DCI), or as they are called more scientifically: dysbaric disorders, represent a complex spectrum of pathophysiological conditions with a wide variety of signs and symptoms related to dissolved gas and its subsequent phase change.1, 2 Any significant organic or functional dysfunction in individuals who have recently been exposed to a reduction in environmental pressure (i.e., decompression) must be considered as possibly being caused by DCI until proven otherwise. However, apart from the more obvious acute manifestations of a single, sudden decompression, individuals who have experienced repetitive exposures (e.g. commercial or professional divers and active recreational divers) may also develop sub-acute or chronic manifestations, even if subtle and almost symptomless. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Dr. Costantino Balestra started to study neurophysiology of fatigue then started studies on environmental physiology issues.
