Location details missing.
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.
Thermocline Buoyancy Shift — Sharp thermoclines can cause sudden buoyancy changes.
Instant Visibility Collapse — Sediment disturbance can eliminate visibility immediately.
Late Detection of Structures — Submerged structures may only appear at very close range.
Hidden Depth Variations — Complex reef topography can conceal depth changes, leading to unintended profile variations.
Distraction from Marine Activity — High fish activity can distract divers and delay depth or gas awareness.
Rapid Surge Direction Changes — Surge near reef structures can reverse direction quickly, pushing divers sideways into unexpected areas.
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.
