Scuba diving is a mode of underwater diving in which a Scuba diver uses a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus to breathe underwater.
Scuba diving is useful in a number of applications, including scientific, military and public safety roles. Scuba divers are trained in the procedures and skills appropriate to their level of certification by instructors affiliated to the diver certification organisations which issue these certifications. These include standard operating procedures for using the equipment and dealing with the general hazards of the underwater environment, and emergency procedures for self-help and assistance of a similarly equipped diver experiencing problems.
