Default Underwater

Hi,

I was thinking about why radio wave communications are not generally
used underwater. Basically I'm asking what are the quantitative
components of the underwater medium that makes it impractical except
for perhaps very short ranges. Things like attenuation, impedance,
etc... Does any one here know these details or have them handy?
