See and photograph fluorescence underwater - for sport, science, and commercial divers

SPORT DIVERS - you'll want equipment that lets you SEE and PHOTOGRAPH fluorescence underwater. Want to try it first? There are several dive operations around the world offering fluorescence night dives with NightSea equipment.

NEW PADI Specialty - Fluorescence Night Diver
Atlantis Divers of Richmond, VA, has created a new PADI specialty in fluorescence night diving. The specialty is now offered through Atlantis Divers and at Capt. Don's Habitat in Bonaire.

SCIENCE DIVERS - you'll want to SEE and PHOTOGRAPH fluorescence just like the sport divers, but we have also developed equipment especially for underwater science applications, especially coral recruitment research (finding juvenile corals - even newly settled larvae - on natural surfaces or settlement tiles) - a new light for finding fluorescing corals in the daytime, a modular underwater magnifier and fluorescent scale bars. You may also want the barrier filters in glasses form for use in the laboratory or the classroom.

Besides coral recruitment, scientists are using NightSea equipment to study the ecology of coral fluorescence and to search for novel fluorescent proteins. Another possible but so far understudied application is automated mapping of what's on benthic surfaces (including chlorophyll in benthic microalgae).

There are already more than 160 research and educational institutions worldwide using NightSea gear for a variety of applications, both above and below water.

COMMERCIAL DIVERS - see fluorescent dyes for finding pipeline leaks and other applications! NightSea's blue light fluorescence technology is much smaller and less expensive than available underwater ultraviolet lights, and works just as well. Field proven. NEW - high intensity light for underwater fluorescent mag particle inspection (NDT).
