I know that different types of tissue on/off gas at different rates. My question is whether a shallow dive (40') or a deeper dive (140') both made to the NDL's (200 minutes and 10 minutes respectively) will have different levels of DCS risk, deserved or undeserved. Will the longer dive load more varieties of tissue and will the different off gassing rates increase DCS risk? Or is there no real difference in risk between the two?
