The two most common [[recreational diving]] nitrox mixes contain 32% and 36% oxygen, which have [[maximum operating depth]]s (MODs) of {{convert|34|m|ft}} and {{convert|29|m|ft}} respectively when limited to a maximum partial pressure of oxygen of {{convert|1.4|bar|abbr=on|lk=in}}. Divers may calculate an [[equivalent air depth]] to determine their decompression requirements or may use nitrox [[Dive tables|tables]] or a nitrox-capable [[dive computer]].<ref name=noaa/><ref name=dan/><ref name="Logan1961" /><ref name="Berghage and McCraken 1979" /> | The two most common [[recreational diving]] nitrox mixes contain 32% and 36% oxygen, which have [[maximum operating depth]]s (MODs) of {{convert|34|m|ft}} and {{convert|29|m|ft}} respectively when limited to a maximum partial pressure of oxygen of {{convert|1.4|bar|abbr=on|lk=in}}.
