Unfortunately, this usually means that things like diet, hydration, and nutrition are often neglected for larger aspects of daily life. This can result in lower cognitive ability, more fatigue, and worsened mood, especially in patients with pre-existing health conditions.

The Art of Snow

Looking at snow up close will probably make you notice that it is formed from thousands of little flakes which have stunningly complex designs.

 

These snowflakes are actually ice crystals. They are formed in the atmosphere, up in the clouds, and transform along their journey to Earth, all thanks to different factors and forces that are involved in the process.

 

Let’s look at the facts on how snowflakes are formed, and what atmospheric conditions are involved that contribute to the stunning details we have come to know them for.

Apple’s Ultra watch priced at $799, is the company’s most expensive watch yet. While Ultra works well for diving activities like underwater pool swims or snorkelling, it does not essentially serve the purpose of a dive computer. Its native app ‘Depth’ mainly tells the wearer basic information like water temperature, time, and current and maximum depth. 

 

There is one good news for owners of Ultra – they can now use the watch as a dive computer by pairing it with Apple's Oceanic Plus app that adds seven more metrics to Ultra. Oceanic Plus works as a dive computer that plans, tracks, and reviews up to 40 meters deep dives.


From the surface time, depth, and gas entered by the diver before their dive, the Oceanic Plus app measures a no-decompression time, or the duration estimated for the diver to stay at a given depth. Other information provided by the app includes tides, water temperature, visibility, currents, GPS entry, exit locations, ascent speed, and battery level along with a summary of the dive. In case of reaching the no-decompression limit or ascending too quick, the app also shows color-coded safety warnings.
