A phrase to start with
Directs the setting toward an underwater environment below the surface with water filling the surroundings.
Appearance and effects

- A below-surface space with water filling the surroundings is more likely to appear
Five examples
1 — A neutral cube against a plain background

Meaning and scope
Definition
An underwater setting is an environment below the water surface in which the surroundings are filled with water. It does not determine saltwater or freshwater, depth, life forms, diving equipment, danger, color, clarity, or culture.
In more detail
It concerns the type of setting below the water surface where water fills the surroundings. It does not choose a water body, depth, visibility, or presence of life, and it does not infer a particular diving activity or hazard.
Includes
- An environment below the water surface in which the surroundings are filled with water
Excludes
- Saltwater or freshwater, depth, life forms, diving equipment, danger, color, clarity, or culture
- Land above the water surface, a dry interior, or a particular diving activity
What this does not imply
- Saltwater or freshwater, depth, life forms, diving equipment, danger, color, clarity, or culture
Variability
Water type, depth, light, turbidity, and the presence of life or objects can be adjusted separately.
Usage and adjustments
Usage
- Use it to set a scene in a general underwater environment below the surface
Distinguish similar expressions
- Specify water body, depth, visibility, life forms, or equipment separately only when needed
Typical uses
- Place subjects in a general underwater environment below the surface
Possible failure modes
- It reads as above water or dry, introduces diving equipment or danger without support, or is fixed as ocean water or a particular color
