Descent Rate
The velocity rate at which AUFS dive from the surface to the bottom of the sea. *
Bottom time
The time spent motionless at the bottom of the sea by AUFS individuals. *
Ascent Rate
The velocity rate at which AUFS rise from the bottom of the sea to the surface. *
Post dive duration
The time spent at the surface by an AUFS between dives. *
I am going to ask you a few questions, just to understand what you would do in case you would see a predator. This, not only will let you have fun, but at the same time will help you understand my hypotheses and what I have done during this professional practice.
Feel free to power up with this rocking jam and make it true! SURVIVE!
If you sense a shark or a predator in the nearby location, what would you do?
If you sense a shark or a predator in the nearby location, would you increase or decrease your descent rate?
If you sense a shark or a predator in the nearby location, would you...?
If you sense a shark or a predator in the nearby location, would you increase or decrease your ascent rate?
