in the event that a submarine becomes disabled underwater, submariners trapped aboard the disabled submarine (DISSUB) must survive until rescue assets arrive or until deteriorating conditions mandate an escape. During this onboard survival period, submariners must perform cognitively-demanding tasks that will affect their likelihood of survival all while experiencing a myriad of stressors (e.g., air contaminants, hopelessness, and pain/injury). The purpose of this report was to comprehensively identify and classify the potential stressors that could be present in a DISSUB scenario. To accomplish this, we reviewed DISSUB literature and conducted interviews with DISSUB subject matter experts. Identified stressors were categorized as environmental, mental, or physical in origin, and each stressor was individually discussed regarding its potential source(s) of origin. Where appropriate we discussed the stressors likelihood of occurrence, and the degree of exposure that submariners may experience over the course of a DISSUB scenario. A second report will review the potential cognitive effects of each identified stressor.
