Should I add the names or skip them altogether?
For many different reasons, you should always give credit/citation to those who have earned it. One type of reason is that your work depends on their work. Another type of reason is to recognize their prior work, even if your work does not necessarily depend on it. Another reason is to give indications to your audience about sources for further information...
EDIT: for situations where some people are doing critical work (such as diving...) but maybe not literally writing, although traditional &quot;citation&quot; does not quite work, I'd still want to make a point of saying something like &quot;the work of &lt;divers, by name&gt; was critical to this study&quot;.
