One of the first things you notice on the new website design is the google events calendar. This calendar is an easy way to find upcoming community events, meetings and dives. To view any one of these categories by themselves, click on the triangle in the upper right, and select which category to view. You can click on any item for more information, and some have links for map directions

Imaging you're in a sub, collecting coral samples almost 2000 feet down, and you're greeted by another air-breather! A very cool video of a monk seal swimming around a deep submersible. Story from the Deep Sea News Blog

Underwater Digital Interface (UDI) is the world’s first digital device for undersea texting and SOS emergency communications. The UDI provides divers with more security than ever before, allowing up to 56 divers at a time to remain in contact with their ships and each other at a distance of 1,000 yards. To accommodate the awkwardness of immersion and bulky diving gear, the controls are more

The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems of the United States It's a little more than most people will ever dive to, but it's still a beautiful and threatened ecosystem. There's even a chapter on the Northeast. There are full color illustrations, and each region is available as a seperate download or as the entire pdf. The report discusses the vulnerability of deep corals to human activities and

This new invention will use the relatively small amounts of air that already exist in water to supply oxygen to both scuba divers and submarines. The invention has already captured the interest of most

Here's an awesome do-it-yourself project for the technically inclined. Build your own ROV for under $300! It's rated to 250' and tethered to the surface with a waterproofed networking cable. There is a working video camera on board, and it is controlled by a joystick, and laptop (which also receives the video/photos). Great for checking vis! http://www.rollette.com/rovrev2/

Just because the weather is getting colder, it's not the time to stop thinking about diving.  Many scuba classes don't require dives, or you could take a drysuit class and dive all year round - winter water is crystal clear. During the winter season is when all the scuba conventions come around.  Boston Scuba Show, Sea Rovers, and Beneath the Sea are in Febuary and march, with many more in April

Welcome to NEADC's blog section. With the newsletter going online only, I decided to come up with a new way for the officers to share news and events they are concerned with. There was a similar section in the paper newsletter for Officer News, now these blogs fill the same role, and can be updated anytime an officer has news -even several times a month.I hope you enjoy! -Steve
