Figures 2.5-2 and 2.5-3 indicate that the most frequent dive seriespattern in our 2003 sample was 10 to 19 dives over six days. Thisreflects the fact that more than 50 percent of dives were collectedfrom divers on liveaboards. Series with two to four dives made upmore than one quarter of all dives and were collected mainly frombeach and day-boat divers. Series with more than 30 dives overseven or more days diving were, for the most part, contributed bythe dive professionals participating in the Recreational DiveProfessional study.Section 2 - Project Dive Exploration (PDE)Figure 2.5-2Percentageof the PDEsample with theindicated numberof dives in the diveseries (n=2,703).Figure 2.5-3Percentageof the PDEsample with theindicated numberof days in diveseries (n=2,703).DAN’s <strong>Report</strong> on Decompression Illness, Diving Fatalities and Project Dive Exploration: 2005 Edition 33
Section 2 - Project Dive Exploration (PDE)Figure 2.5-4Percentageof the PDE divesthat reached theindicatedmaximumdepths.The maximum depth distribution for all dives sampled in 2003 isshown in Figure 2.5-4. The maximum depth was less than 90 feetof seawater (fsw) / 27 meters of seawater (msw) in 77 percent ofthe sampled dives. Dives with a maximum depth greater than 90feet made up 20 percent, and dives with a maximum depth greaterthan 120 fsw / 37 msw was only 3.5 percent.Figure 2.5-5Percentageof the PDEdive seriesthat reachedthe indicatedmaximum depth.The maximum depth of the dive series (Figures 2.5-5, 2.5-6) indicatesthat 58 percent of PDE divers made dives deeper than 90 fswat least once during their dive series.34DAN’s <strong>Report</strong> on Decompression Illness, Diving Fatalities and Project Dive Exploration: 2005 Edition
