As the temperature increases, the solubility of a gas in a liquid decreases.i would think that as you warm you would off gas better than if your were cold. when your cold the muscles tighten and shake trying to warm themselves. requiring the body to use more air to maintain the process. this would make me think that this would null the effect of vasocontriction. you'd intake a greater amount of nitrogen at depth but the dialation effect of getting warmer would help offgas.
i'm just an emt so my physiological knowledge isn't surgical grade but i try.![]()
When the core body temperature drops, a shivering reflex is triggered. Muscle groups around the vital organs begin to shake in small movements creating warmth by expending additional energy.
