Display the tissue heat-map. The heat map summarises, for the duration of the dive, the inert gas tissue pressures
for each of the 16 tissue compartments of the Bühlmann model. Blue colours mean low gas pressures in a tissue compartment
and thus on-gassing, green to red means excess gas in the tissue and thus off-gassing. Fast to slow tissues are indicated from
top to bottom. The figure below explains in greater detail how the heat map can be interpreted.

It is possible to map the height of each of the dark green vertical bars of image *A* to a

as the yellow part of image *B* and the height of this bar can therefore be summarised

The image below shows the profiles and heat maps for two dives to about 45m.
The inert gas pressures in the fast tissues
rise much more rapidly, going through the sequence from light blue to black and green.
In contrast the slow tissues accumulate inert gas at a much slower rate.
