Bubble Trapping Under Overhangs — Rock overhangs can trap exhaled bubbles, reducing visibility and causing disorientation.
Reflected Surge Patterns — Surge reflecting off rock faces can create irregular and unpredictable water movement.
Current Funnel Effect — Narrow gaps between rocks can accelerate water flow unexpectedly.
Landmark Misidentification — Familiar sites can become unrecognisable at night.
Light-Induced Tunnel Vision — Focused light beams reduce peripheral awareness.
Depth Perception Errors — Reduced ambient light increases depth perception mistakes.
Eddy Pull-Off Zones — Eddies behind structures can pull divers away from the main drift line.
Delayed Surface Pickup — Strong current can exceed surface tracking assumptions, delaying boat pickup.
Vertical Current Shear — Currents may vary by depth, causing vertical separation even when divers stay together.
Unstable Visual Ascents — Relying on wall visuals can destabilise ascents.
Gradual Depth Creep — Lack of visual bottom reference can cause unnoticed descent.
Unsignalled Downcurrents — Downcurrents can form without visible indicators.
