How do you you estimate pool water temperature using climate temperature?
It's not simple. Two pools in the same city may be 4-5 degrees different in temperature.
Essentially, I think you have to integrate outside temperature over time, add a correction for average below ground temperature, and add another correction for number of hours of direct sunlight and sun angle.

How do you score 10m platform diving?
You decide which dives you are going to perform before the competition, in mens competition 6 dives have to be performed from the 6 different diving groups. Women have to perform 5 different dives.
Each dive has a degree of difficulty, simple dives may have a DD as low as 1.2 but the hardest dives have DD's of up to 4.1.
The diver performs the dive in front of 5-7 judges. The judges mark from 0-10 with 1/2 marks in between. when the judges have presented their scores, for example with 5 judges: 6, 6.5, 6, 7, 5.5. The lowest and highest score's are ignored to get the average 3 marks, in this case: 6, 6 & 6.5 (the 5.5 and 7 were ignored). 6,6 & 6.5 makes 18.5 this score is multiplied by the DD to give the final score of the dive. So if the dive had a DD of 1.2 then the score would be 22.2, but if the DD of the dive was 4.1, the score would be 75.85
Hope this makes sense.
Why is the Olympic diving pool so big?

The judges just see the dive in live action, once. No slow mo replays. I just learnt this from the commentary!
