Use of Surface Marker Buoys - Survey

I am a final year Product Design student at the University of the West of England in Bristol, UK, I am currently working on a research project looking into safety equipment used by scuba divers.

My main focus at the moment is looking at Surface Marker Buoys (SMBs), dSMBs and Personal Locator Beacons.

I have put together a quick survey to gather info on how/if divers use these pieces of kit and was hoping that you all would be willing to take a look: https://uwe.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6gJ5KG362vVMXKl

If you have any stories you would be willing to share about using SMBs & PLBs or times you wished you had either I would greatly appreciate that!”

Is there a way to get some free Marker Buoys?

I don't use a ton but the few I have are in use and I'd like a few more. I can buy 33 for 17 BaitCoin, which isn't bad but if I can get some via a mission or something I'd consider it.

Can I make a custom marker? Using copic on unconventional surface.

Weird question, I am trying to find an alcohol based marker in the perfect color to add a darker root shade to a synthetic wig. The "hair" is basically plastic and I've heard that copic can be used.

However, I am unsure if copics can be blended with alcohol, or do I need the special copic blending tool?

Also, if none of the colors suit me, can I somehow combine inks into a custom marker?

Sorry for the newb questions. I actually used to do art, just never got into markers :)

[Dead Space] Why do the necromorphs attack Isaac in DS1 despite the marker wanting to be returned to the surface?

The necros were controlled by a hivemind and the Marker REALLY wants Isaac to bring it to the planet for convergence, so what gives?

TIL that modern military submarines have a rescue buoy that releases during an emergency, and it remains attached to the submarine by a cable. Once on the surface it can indicate to rescuers the position of the submarine, and may include a telephone for communication with the trapped submariners. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Res…

Why do dry erase markers get easily removed from some surfaces but not others?

Is it specifically the surface’s friction amount that determines whether it can be removed?

Quantitating surface markers via FACS

Anyone familiar with a protocol out of Stanford referenced in a 2021 paper by Mackall and Miklos on bispecific CD19 CD22?

"Further investigation to quantitate the number of CD19 molecules on individual cancer cells using a technique developed at Stanford called flow cytometry found a clear, pre-treatment distinction between patients who later relapsed and those whose treatment was successful: Patients with more than about 3,000 CD19 molecules per cell were more likely to respond well to CAR-T cell treatment, while those with fewer were more likely to relapse after seemingly successful treatment, the researchers found."

Looking for details on this protocol. Corresponding authors haven't responded.

Are rope-less water marker buoys a real thing?

I know I've seen those buoys that kinda look like a barbell and have a weight tied to rope and you drop it and let the weight hit the bottom and you have depth and a target to aim for when casting.

But I could have sworn I saw one that like spun itself around in the water and stayed within a few feet of the area you dropped it in but had no rope holding it in place.

Am I buggin or is that real? If so does anyone have a link? Because I can't seem to find them online (probably because they're not real lol).

Thanks.

There is this trick I found by using the greengill lucker and the christmas buoy to spawn infinite surface fish! What you do is you wait for a school to be as long as possible then you spam it with the buoy. This spawns a bunch of surface fish which then again spawn even more! Hope this made sense!

Please help me, what type of permanent markers (acrylic, oil, alcohol based) should I purchase for use at drawing simple decorations on hard rubber and hard plastic surfaces? Thank you.

I want to add some decorations to furnitures, just a fun project. Please help me with the pros and cons of different types of marker and which would be best on hard rubber surfaces. As you can tell, I don't know much but I've seen really awesome marker arts from people which made me want to learn. Thank you.
