Preliminary study on carbondioxide, temperature and humidity profiles in a manned submersible

The purpose of this study was to investigate carbon dioxide concentration, temperature and humidity profiles in a manned submersible, to measure carbon dioxide production rates of divers at different activities, and to evaluate the carbon dioxide scrubber performance efficiency at different environmental conditions.
