Hyperventilation An increase in rate and/or volume of breathing. Carbon

dioxide blood levels decrease with little corresponding

increase in oxygen blood levels. If the diver engages in

excessive hyperventilation, he may diminish his desire to

breathe, long enough to become unconscious after a long

period of apnea.

Hypoxia A condition that occurs when a diver's tissues do not receive

enough oxygen. Freedivers become hypoxic when they hold

their breath; they can eventually suffer blackout if they hold

their breath too long.

Multi-level dive A dive that includes time spent at various depths and whose

no-decompression limits are therefore not determined solely

by the maximum depth attained.

NITROX In sports diving refers to any mix with a higher fraction of

oxygen than standard air.

NOAA United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric

Administration.

No-decompression time

The maximum amount of time a diver may remain at a

particular depth without having to make decompression stops

during the subsequent ascent.
