What does the "Cross Correction" technique pertain to during dives?

The "Cross Correction" technique pertains to altitude dives because it involves adjustments made to account for lower ambient pressure at higher elevations compared to sea level. When divers ascend to altitude, the physiological effects on the body and the behavior of gases within the diver’s body change significantly.

The technique involves modifying dive plans, ascent rates, and safety stop protocols to prevent decompression sickness and other dive-related illnesses. This ensures that divers can safely manage the different pressures they may encounter, as these variables can significantly influence dive safety and performance.

In contrast, the other options—night diving, open water rescues, and deep sea exploration—do not specifically relate to the adjustments made for altitude dives. Each of those activities has its own unique challenges and techniques but does not involve the same atmospheric considerations that the "Cross Correction" technique addresses.
