scuba diver
This term specifies a person using a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus, which distinguishes them from skin divers or free divers who rely on a single breath of air. It carries a connotation of technical skill and specialized equipment usage, often associated with recreation, marine biology, or professional salvage operations.
While the term is common in everyday speech, in professional or technical contexts, it may be replaced by "diver" when the SCUBA method is already understood.
