How the calculators work

The calculators are based on published diving standards and reference data:

  • No-decompression limits (NDL) — PADI Recreational Dive Planner (RDP) and NAUI dive table values for air diving
  • Gas physiology — Dalton's Law, Henry's Law, and Boyle's Law as applied in recreational and technical diving training curricula
  • Nitrox and MOD — Oxygen toxicity limits per PADI, SSI, and TDI standards (PO₂ max 1.4 bar working, 1.6 bar contingency)
  • Decompression — Bühlmann ZHL-16 compartment model (simplified reference only; not a substitute for a certified dive computer)
  • Safety limits — Recreational depth limit 40 m / 130 ft per PADI and SSI Open Water standards

How content is prepared

AI-assisted, editorially reviewed. Blog articles are drafted with AI assistance and reviewed for factual accuracy before publication. Dive physics values and certification standards are cross-checked against PADI, SSI, NAUI, and TDI reference materials.

ScuPlan tools are for planning reference only and do not replace proper scuba training, a certified dive computer, or qualified dive leadership. Always dive within your certification limits.
