Dive in water and Chamber Treatment
Your dive has a score that can be calculated from my previous Blog. This score is 500 for a No D Dive on air at sealevel. As the FiO2 increases and your Altitude, the Surface, increases the Dive Score changes. As Nitrogen, as in FiN2, decreases by 1% add 12 to the reference Dive Score of 500. As you altitude increases (either in a lake or tank) for every 100 feet. subtract 2 from the reference Dive Score. Then subtract your corrected dive score, corrected for your mix and for your altitude, from the calculated dive score (depth, feet, times the square root of the time, minutes, of your dive) and divide by 6. This gives the number of minutes to decompress before coming to the surface, 15 to 20 feet below the trough of the waves. If you need more decompression than you have supplies for, consider an On Deck Chamber. Plan your dive.

Jeffrudell - After reading your blog, I have decided that I would rather go for kelp dive in San Diego this weekend instead of deep wreck dive for Yukon and Ruby E?! In any event, I cannot agree more, "Plan your Dive"!!
