Why does the NDL that the dive computer shows when doing repetitive dives is less accurate the more repetitive dives you do ? what is physical explanation ? is there a problem to model the affect of the repetitive dives?
there is a real risk of the model becoming less accurate with repetitive dives as more "unknowns" are thrown at it.
Computers generally track depths and times as compared to a conservative model, but usually do not consider aspects like water temperature in the calculations, much less your personal hydration, fatigue, physical condition and exertion.So what are the main "unknown" parameters that the repetitive dives model is missing ? Is it all about microbubbles ?

I think Cochran is working with water temps and looking at other aspects, but I don't really know much at all about them. Heard a little...
