Does anyone have knowledge of the oxygen molecule density for a given volume of air (lungs) with varying temperature? I realize that warmer air will contain less due to expansion, but by how much. This was clearly evident to me back in the 80's when learning to fly small Cessna aircraft. The lift on the wings was far better in the winter. I have been training all winter by trail running in the woods, in 30-50F temps. With the first run in the 70's, it was a difficult run trying to make the same time. Is there a formula for temp/density ratio? Particularly with hard numbers for various temps. As most of my diving is in warmer air, I see this as a major disadvantage over colder air. (But maybe offset by less body heat loss in the water).
