Allometric Scaling of Decompression Sickness Risk in Terrestrial Mammals

2011

Fahlman, Andreas | Tyack, Peter L | Mahon, Richard

The objective with this study is to determine if there is an allometric relationship between body mass and decompression sickness (DCS) risk over a large range of terrestrial mammals. We have modified a previously published probabilistic model to assess DCS risk for different species. The results will help determine if studies performed in different species and body sizes can be compared or if there are differences in risk not attributable to body size.
