Dr. Todd Kincaidโ€™s account of ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ท๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜ ๐—ž๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ follows a small team of explorers through the submerged cave systems of the Ta**us Mountains in 1995.
From the vast rooms of Kirkgรถz-Suluin to the descent into Gรถk Cave, the expedition combined exploration, survey work, photography, video documentation, and long days of preparation between dives.

The project documented hundreds of meters of passage, recorded significant cave features, and culminated in a dive to 117 m in Gรถk Cave, which became known as the deepest underwater cave in Asia.

More than a record of remarkable dives, this is a firsthand account of a project that helped shape modern cave exploration. That is why we are bringing this story back to InDEPTH.

Cave biology changes the way you look at a passage.
A shrimp in your light, a microbial mat on the ceiling, a crayfish under a food drip โ€” these are not background details.

The Divesoft ECHO feels immediately at home in a technical diverโ€™s workflow. It is easy to use, quick to understand, and designed to encourage consistent gas analysis rather than make it feel like an extra task.

Its biggest strength is the integration of oxygen, helium, and carbon monoxide analysis into a single unit. Readings were clear, stable, and repeatable, and the addition of CO detection makes it a more complete breathing-gas verification tool.

The strength of Hidden Worlds is immediately clear. The underwater scenes are superb, and the film maintains a slow, controlled, dreamlike rhythm as it moves through open water, wrecks, mines, and caves.

The review argues that explaining why we dive may be an impossible task. What the film captures instead is the feeling: silence, movement, suspension, and the strange emotional pull of being briefly inside these hidden places.

Shearwater Research has announced the Perdix 3, the latest evolution of its full-size dive computer line. The new model adds a 2.4-inch AMOLED display, an updated menu system, programmable quick-change settings, and expanded visual customisation.

The computer also introduces a new Big Layout viewing option and supports air integration with up to four Shearwater transmitters.

No Solenoids, No Shortcuts: Mike Young on Building Rebreathers

Mike Young never set out to become a rebreather pioneer. He started by building dive lights he couldnโ€™t afford to buy, then moved into rebreather design with the same mindset.

In this interview, Young discusses the KISS philosophy, the development of the Sidewinder, why he favors mechanical designs, and the role simplicity plays in his approach to rebreathers.

After Cancer: Can We Safely Return to Diving?
The core problem is not cancer itself. It is residual risk, the lasting physiological, neurological, cardiopulmonary, and metabolic consequences of cancer and its treatment.

Dr. Camilo Saraiva argues that fitness-to-dive decisions should move away from diagnosis-based decisions and toward failure-mode analysis: identifying how and where a diver could fail underwater, and whether those failures can be overcome.

The article also includes personal accounts from Jill Heinerth, Edd Sorenson, Roger Williams, Steve Lewis, and Kaddi Vogel.

Ratio Deco and Standard Gases grew from divers studying decompression schedules, identifying patterns, and building practical tools around what they learned.

Their purpose was not blind adherence to a rule set. Their purpose was understanding. As Jarrod Jablonski explains, tools are most useful when they help divers think through a problem rather than simply follow instructions.

Divers are generally good at solving technical problems.

We can write procedures, create standards, improve training, and analyse incidents. Those approaches work well for many of the challenges we face.

But some problems don't behave that way.

Gareth Lock examines the difference between critical, tame, and wicked problems, and why some of diving's most persistent issues resist the kinds of solutions we naturally reach for.

Hyperbaric Medicine: Between Evidence and Overreach
Hyperbaric medicine grew out of diving medicine. Much of what we know about decompression sickness helped shape the field.

But as hyperbaric oxygen therapy expanded into other areas of medicine, a familiar question followed: where does the evidence end and the marketing begin?

Professor Richard Moon, Prof. Jacek Kot, and Dr. Evangelos Papoutsidakis discuss the history, the science, and the consequences of getting that distinction wrong.
