What is mean suspension dive?

A mean suspension dive is a term used in diving to describe a technique where a diver maintains a stable position in the water column, typically at a certain depth, without ascending or descending. This is often achieved by controlling buoyancy through body position and the use of diving equipment. The diver's ability to remain suspended in the water allows for observation of marine life or conducting tasks without the interference of movement. It is a valuable skill for divers in both recreational and professional settings.
