The Summer Factor: Temperature. Temperature also affects density altitude. When you heat the air, the air molecules have more energy. And, when they have more energy, they spread farther apart. (You probably learned this in high school chemistry class...). When the air is warmer than standard, it's less dense and performance decreases.
This is because a higher-than-normal temperature (a warm, balmy day) tends to be accompanied by a higher-than-normal barometric pressure of the atmosphere. That is, high temperature tends to decrease air density, while high pressure tends to increase air density. The air density ratio column in Table 3.1-1, which is the ratio of standard air density at altitude to the standard air density at sea level, shows that the air density decreases rapidly as altitude increases.
