The decompression of a diver is the reduction in ambient pressure experienced during ascent from depth. It is also the process of elimination of dissolved inert gases from the diver's body, which occurs during the ascent, largely during pauses in the ascent known as decompression stops, and after surfacing, until the gas concentrations reach equilibrium.

Decompression
Decompression has several meanings, some of which are covered by several articles:
- Data decompression, the action of reversing data compression
- Decompression (physics), the release of pressure and the opposition of physical compression
- Decompression (altitude). the reduction of pressure and the related physiological effects due to increase in altitude or other equivalent reduction of ambient pressure below normal atmospheric pressure
- Uncontrolled decompression, catastrophic reduction of pressure in accidents involving pressure vessels such as aircraft
- Decompression (diving), the reduction in pressure and the process of allowing dissolved inert gases to be eliminated from the tissues during ascent from a dive
- Decompression (comics), in comic book storytelling, is the stylistic choice to tell a story mainly by visuals, with few words.
- Decompression (surgery), a procedure used to reduce pressure on a compressed structure, such as spinal decompression
- Herniated disc decompression, a form of treatment for Spinal disc herniation, employed by chiropractors
- "Decompression" (The Outer Limits), an episode of the American television fiction series The Outer Limits
Examples of use of decompression

2. Experts said such a defect could have provoked dangerous decompression.
3. Rapid decompression occurred when Fogg was unbuckled from his seat and reached for a water bottle.
4. However, decompression does not normally lead to the loss of the aircraft.
5. "If you just opened the compartment, there would be an explosive decompression.
