Expert Film: Dr Rhian Waller is an Associate Professor in Marine Biology at the University of Maine. How does Rhian's dry suit help her change the properties of her own body when diving?

Discover the specialised equipment used by deep-sea biologists to dive in extremely cold waters, including the differences between wetsuits and dry suits, and how they keep divers warm and protected. The video also highlights the importance of buoyancy control and the use of weights to achieve neutral buoyancy for effective underwater study. This insight into cold-water diving gear enhances understanding of marine exploration and the challenges faced by researchers in deep-sea environments.
