text: In general, a diver and his gear (even with no air in his BCD) are positively buoyant or become positively buoyant during a dive.
text: This causes the air in his BCD and his wetsuit (or drysuit) to compress, and he becomes more negatively buoyant.
text: Once the air bubble becomes smaller and more water enters the diver, the diver displaces a weight of water that is less than its own weight, so it becomes negatively buoyant and sinks in accordance with Archimedes' principle.
text: When the pressure on the container is released, the air expands again, increasing the weight of water displaced and the diver again becomes positively buoyant and floats.
text: If the diver rises, by even the most minuscule amount, the pressure on the bubble will decrease, it will expand, it will displace more water, and the diver will become more positively buoyant, rising still more quickly.
text: Divers become neutrally buoyant and hover
