  • You're Listening to Ocean Currents, a Podcast Brought to You by NOAA's Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary
    1 July 7th, 2014, oc070714.mp3 Free Diving and El Nino 2014 Jennifer Stock, Francesca Koe, Logan Johnson Jennifer Stock: You're listening to Ocean Currents, a podcast brought to you by NOAA's Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary. This radio program was originally broadcast on KWMR in Point Reyes Station, California. Thanks for listening! Welcome to another edition of Ocean Currents, I'm your host, Jennifer Stock. On this show I talk with scientists, educators, explorers, policy-makers, ocean enthusiasts, adventurers and more, all uncovering and learning about the mysterious and vital part of our planet: the blue ocean. I bring this show to you monthly on KWMR from NOAA's Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary, one of four national marine sanctuaries in California all working to protect unique and biologically diverse ecosystems. Cordell bank is located just offshore of the KWMR listening radius off the Marin-Sonoma coast, and it's thriving with ocean life above and below the surface. The ocean holds so many mysteries to us: the habitats, the life, the mysterious ways it moves and mixes, its temperatures, its ability to absorb carbon dioxide. And as a species-- as humans-- we've made great strides on being able to enter it and see it below the surface with technology aiding greatly. Before scuba was invented we were limited by our breath to explore underwater, and this is how humans first accessed the sea, and today we still access the sea this way. If you've ever held your breath underwater before you have been free diving.

  • No Limits Freediving
    1 No Limits Freediving "The challenges to the respiratory function of the breath-hold diver' are formidable. One has to marvel at the ability of the human body to cope with stresses that far exceed what normal terrestrial life requires." Claes Lundgren, Director, Center for Research and Education in Special Environments A woman in a deeply relaxed state floats in the water next to a diving buoy. She is clad in a figure-hugging wetsuit, a dive computer strapped to her right wrist, and another to her calf. She wears strange form-hugging silicone goggles that distort her eyes, giving her a strange bug-eyed appearance. A couple of meters away, five support divers tread water near a diving platform, watching her perform an elaborate breathing ritual while she hangs onto a metal tube fitted with two crossbars. A few meters below the buoy, we see that the metal tube is in fact a weighted sled attached to a cable descending into the dark-blue water. Her eyes are still closed as she begins performing a series of final inhalations, breathing faster and faster. Photographers on the media boats snap pictures as she performs her final few deep and long hyperventilations, eliminating carbon dioxide from her body. Then, a thumbs-up to her surface crew, a pinch of the nose clip, one final lungful of air, and the woman closes her eyes, wraps her knees around the bottom bar of the sled, releases a brake device, and disappears gracefully beneath the waves. The harsh sounds of the wind and waves suddenly cease and are replaced by the effervescent bubbling of air being released from the regulators of scuba-divers.

  • Diving with the Seahorse
    DIVING WITH THE SEAHORSE Omega has achieved a great deal in divers’ watches and was a true pioneer in water-sealed timepieces. The Omega seahorse symbolizing water resistance has even become one of the best known logos. BY JENS KOCH he history of divers’ watches at Omega began not only at an ex - T tremely early point in time but with a timekeeper that was better known for its elegance than its robust construc - tion. This is not surprising, for it was the age of art deco and thus rectangular watches. In 1932, the Omega Marine was already defining revolutionary case making: a double case ensured water re - sistance, while a tensioning lever pushed the inner case against a leather seal. The outer crystal was crafted in scratchproof sapphire, a rarity at the time. The watch was available in rust-free Staybrite steel as well as in gold. A strap crafted in seal leather guaranteed resistance to salt wa - ter, and the folding clasp offered length adjustment. In an extreme temperature test in 1936, three Marine models were placed The Omega Marine, introduced in 1932, with a in water heated to 85° C (185° F) for double case, sapphire crystal, and a strap made of four minutes and then lowered 73 meters saltwater-resistant seal leather HISTORY Omega Seamaster The foundations of a grand line: Seamaster models from 1948, The Seamaster Professional 600 from 1970, nicknamed ProPlof, Those who put their lives on the line need a good watch on their wrists: The Seamaster Professional 100 0m/330 0ft from 1971 with one of them in chronometer version with a monocoque case and security button for the rotating bezel an Omega ad from 1970 for the Seamaster Professional 600 a monocoque case was Omega’s most water-resistant watch.

Ich war 11 Jahre alt. Das, was ich dort sah, war ein Traum für mich: einzutauchen ins nasse Universum mit künst- lichen Flossen an den Füßen und einem riesigen Zyklopenauge vor dem Gesicht. Auf der Xarifa-Expedition von Hans Hass war ein junger Wie- ner Doktor dabei, Irenäus Eibl-Eibesfeldt, den sie Renki nannten. Natürlich konnte ich nicht ahnen, dass Renki später ein geschätz- ter, warmherziger Kollege und Freund von mir werden würde. Damals lebte ich in der DDR und als jemand, der hinter dem Ei- sernen Vorhang aufgewachsen war, wuchs in mir die Sehnsucht, auch einmal in einem Korallenriff zu tauchen und Fische zu be- obachten wie dieser junge Doktor aus Wien. Mit 18 Jahren flüch- tete ich deshalb in den Westen. Dafür verließ ich alles, das Eltern- haus, meine Freunde und die Tauchgründe an der Alten Elbe in der Nähe von Magdeburg. Aus diesem Neuanfang wurden in den letzten sechs Dekaden 10 000 aufregende Stunden als beobachtender Biologe in Ozea- nen, Meeren, Seen, Flüssen, gefluteten Bergwerken, Höhlen und tiefen Brunnen.

  • POP Diving: the Big Blue
    POP Diving: The Big Blue BACKGROUND INFO and FACTS In the 60's and 70's, freediving world champions Jaques Mayol and Enzo Maiorca face one another in the blue, beating each other's records. Their performances leave medical experts of those times speechless, and bring freediving to the attention of the general public. It is Mayol, the Frenchman, who finally prevails on the Italian, becoming the first freediver to go beyond 100 meters of depth. And it is precisely around Mayol, considered the father of modern day freediving, that in 1987, movie director Luc Besson creates his first cult-movie, Le Grand Bleu. THE FILM The Blue is so vast and dream-like that it could envelop the collective unconscious of any living being, from man to bacteria. A strong surreal sense permeates the movie, from Mayol's (Jean- Marc Barr) dream to Enzo's mask (Maiorca is played by an outstanding Jean Reno), to the drinking scene in evening attire on the bottom of the pool. In full Besson-style, almost all the characters are caricatural, including Rosanna Arquette, who at times moves like a puppet, as well as the Italians, and the competition judges. At sea, though, things get serious, bodies hyperventilate, go down, come up, dance. They dance with dolphins. It is especially an ethereal Barr-Jaques Mayol who dances; in the movie, as in real life, he was the first to sense the physiological similarities between man and dolphin. Mayol lay the foundations for scientific exploration of the blood-shift phenomenon, and for modern day freediving.

  • The World's Deepest Watch
    The world’s deepest watch PRESS INFORMATION The groundbreaking technology behind the record-breaking dive When adventurer Victor Vescovo successfully piloted his submersible Limiting Factor to the bottom of the Mariana Trench in early 2019, the 10,928m dive set a new world record. Along for the ride – and performing perfectly at depth - was OMEGA’s Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep Professional. About Five Deeps The world’s fi rst manned expedition to the deepest point in each of the fi ve oceans is the brainchild of adventurer and submersible pilot Victor Vescovo. Above the surface is the good ship DSSV Pressure Drop, equipped with the highest fi delity full ocean depth sonar. The action at depth takes place in DSV Limiting Factor, a Triton-built submersible commercially certifi ed by the international maritime authority DNV-GL for extensive, repeated dives to extraordinary depths. On the ocean fl oor, gathering important scientifi c data are three “Landers”. OMEGA’s distinguished dive watch legacy Our journey begins in 1932, with the launch of the fi rst divers’ watch made for everyone – the OMEGA “Marine”. The timepiece used by Charles William Beebe, the American explorer who created the ‘bathysphere’, a spherical diving vessel that could transport humans to the depths of the ocean. The “Marine” served Beebe well during his historical 14m dive in the 1930’s. “I wore my OMEGA Marine in the Pacifi c Ocean at a depth of 14 metres, where the pressure is twice the normal one. Its tightness to water and dust and its robustness to corrosion rep- resent a true progress for watchmaking science.” Charles William Beebe In 1948, the first Seamaster is born.

  • LA ATLANTIDA.Pdf
    La Atlántida, ¿Un mito? ¿Un deseo de creer? ¿Un recuerdo ancestral? ¿Una fábula de Platón? ¿Un enigma geológico? ¿Es la Atlántida algo más que un nombre tan acertado que cualquier experto en marketing daría su sueldo por encontrar uno de similar éxito? El filósofo griego Platón escribió unas obras llamadas Diálogos en las que trataba de explicar su concepción del mundo. Dos misteriosos diálogos fueron los llamados Timeo y Critias. En ellos, en apenas unas líneas, unas veinte páginas de un libro normal, Platón escribió la noticia acerca de un continente gigantesco que había Dibujo de como pudo ser el centro de la Atlántida. Desaparecido en un sólo día y una noche, tragado enterito por el mar océano. Platón citaba como fuente al historiador Solón, quien habría oído en Egipto la historia de la desaparición de una "isla del oeste". Eso ocurrió, según Platón, 9.500 años antes de su época (427-347 a.C.), y la isla tenía una superficie de once mil kilómetros cuadrados, más grande que China. Los atlantes constituyeron una sociedad superdesarrollada pero se alejaron de su dios y sobrevino el castigo divino, haciéndolos desaparecer para siempre. Al parecer Platón iba a escribir las razones de Zeus o su homólogo dios de los atlantes para condenarlos así, pero la muerte no le dejó terminar esa parte de sus Diálogos. Foto del centro de la ciudad de la Atlántida, como pudo ser en maqueta. El continente de la Atlántida estaba, como su nombre indica, en el océano Atlántico, entre la costa oeste del sur de Europa, y la del este de América.
