snorkel

Borrowed from German Schnorchel (“(submarine) snorkel”), related to schnarchen (“to snore”). Thus named because of the submarine snorkel's functional similarity to a nose and because of its noise when in use. The anglicized spelling was first recorded in 1945. See, for example, Mark S. Watson, "New Epoch in Sea War", The Baltimore Sun, December 31, 1945, p. 8: "The Germans' earlier quest of the last important objective, it will be remembered, had produced the Snorkel, a long exhaust tube whose vent reached above water and permitted a submerged vessel to discharge its Diesel fumes in open air."

nitrox

Blend of nitro(gen) + ox(ygen). Analyzable as nitro- + ox

"Enriched air" or "nitrox" is a mixture of air and oxygen; the oxygen component ranges to about 50% but is used normally at 32 to 40%. [...] Safe enriched air nitrox diving practices established for the scientific diving community might be of some value and could help avoid accidents due to ignorance of its hazards and use of improper procedures.

1989 September, “Abstract”, in R. W. Hamilton, Dudley J. Crosson, Alan W. Hulbert, editors, Workshop on Enriched Air Nitrox Diving (National Undersea Research Program Research Report; 89-1), Rockville, Md.: Office of Undersea Research, Oceanic and Atmosphere Research, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, →OCLC, page 1:

NOAA Nitrox I is a standard breathing gas mixture of 32% oxygen (±1%); the balance of the gas (68%) is nitrogen. [...] High-pressure storage cylinders, scuba tanks, regulators, and all high-pressure gas transfer equipment that is used with pure oxygen or with nitrox mixtures that contain more than 40 percent oxygen must be cleaned and maintained for oxygen service.

1991 October, “Appendix D: NOAA Nitrox I Diving and Decompression Tables”, in NOAA Diving Manual: Diving for Science and Technology, Silver Spring, Md.: Office of Undersea Research, Oceanic and Atmosphere Research, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, →OCLC, page D-1:

Is there a compromise between too much oxygen and too much inert gas? The answer is the use of enriched air nitrox (enriched air) mixtures in the SCUBA tank. The two most commonly used mixtures are 32 percent and 36 percent oxygen mixtures. [...] [T]he increased oxygen percentages make the diver using nitrox mixtures more subject to oxygen seizures. With nitrox mixtures, the relative increase in oxygen percentage is over three times the relative decrease in nitrogen percentage.

2004, Michael B. Strauss, Igor V. Aksenov, Diving Science, Champaign, Ill.: Human Kinetics, →ISBN, page 35:

[N]itrox is often referred to as ‘enriched air’ or ‘enriched air – nitrox’ (EANx). By convention, the mix is described by reference to its oxygen content. Thus, if a nitrox mix contains 36 per cent oxygen, then it is referred to as ‘nitrox 36’ (‘Nx36’) or ‘EANx36’. [...] [T]he nitrox diver can use the reduced absorption of nitrogen to increase allowable dive time by using the EAD to derive the no-decompression limit for the dive or as a basis for calculating decompression. This approach allows longer dives and shorter decompression.

2016, Carl Edmonds, Michael Bennett, John Lippmann, Simon J. Mitchell, “Technical Diving”, in Diving and Subaquatic Medicine, 5th edition, Boca Raton, Fla.: CRC Press, →ISBN, part 10 (Specialized Diving and Its Problems), page 705:

On his first dive, Ralph got really narced, and thought he was turning into a sea turtle.

While doing a test in a chamber to assess the pressure at which one will get narced seems like a great idea, it is not necessarily an indicator of who will get narced at what depth.

1996, Karen Burge, “(was: will you get narced?) maybe...maybe not”, in rec.scuba (Usenet):

There has been only one time that I felt narced and strangley it was in 127 of water.

1998, Ray Jones, “Narcosis”, in bit.listserv.scuba-l (Usenet):

All went well. However I am absolutely convinced that I was narced.

aerophore

Predecessor of modern scuba was the 1865 aerophore invention of Rouquayrol and Denayrouze.

1992, Richard A. Clinchy, Glen H. Egstrom, Lou Fead, Jeppesen's Open Water Sport Diver Manual, →ISBN, page 53:

Benoit Rouquayrol (a French mining engineer) and Auguste Denayrouze (a French naval officer) invented the aerophore in 1865. Their creation is considered the source of modern scuba equipment.

2010, Dennis Graver, Scuba Diving-4th Edition, →ISBN, page 3:

The aerophore consisted of two main components — an air-filled canister about the size and shape of a lawn mower engine, which the diver wore on his back, and a new creation, a "regulator," which automatically adjusted the pressure of the air in the tank to that of the water surrounding it.

2015, Stephen Harrigan, Water and Light: A Diver's Journey to a Coral Reef, →ISBN, page 190:

(underwater diving, historical) A predecessor of the aqualung, invented by Benoit Rouquayrol and Auguste Denayrouze 1865

sport diving

There are several factors or practices in sport diving which tend to upset the normal breathing process and can lead to a build-up of carbon dioxide in the blood.

1992, Glen H. Egstrom, Lou Fead, Jeppesen's Open Water Sport Diver Manual, page 121:

It should be recognized from the outset that much of the discussion material in the following chapters is geared toward a diver who has made a clear and conscious decision to pursue a type of diving that is beyond what is considered "normal" sport diving limits.

1995, Bret Gilliam, Robert Von Maier, Darren Webb, Deep Diving, page 13:

Sport diving is attracting more and more people of all ages who, once they've learnt the correct techniques, can enjoy the element of risk without being in any way endangered by it.
