Leaf Storage Wilt Percent Limit Checker

Audit matched stored leaf mass loss against a caller wilt criterion and split water/dry change using paired assays; signed component changes are retained and spoilage is not diagnosed.

Description

Stored leaves can lose water and dry matter in different proportions.

Stored leaves can lose water and dry matter in different proportions. Paired dry-matter assays split the total observed loss.

Audit matched stored leaf mass loss against a caller wilt criterion and split water/dry change using paired assays; signed component changes are retained and spoilage is not diagnosed.

When to use Leaf Storage Wilt Percent Limit Checker

Use this tool to audit matched stored leaf mass loss against a caller wilt criterion and split water/dry change using paired assays; signed component changes are retained and spoilage is not diagnosed.

Prepare cocoon, larval, leaf or reeling measurements on a consistent batch and moisture basis. Use the declared mass, length and time units.

How to use Leaf Storage Wilt Percent Limit Checker and understand its results

Prepare cocoon, larval, leaf or reeling measurements on a consistent batch and moisture basis. Use the declared mass, length and time units.
Enter initialLeafMassGrams, storedLeafMassGrams, initialDryMatterFraction, storedDryMatterFraction, callerMaximumWiltFraction using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
Read totalMassLossFraction, estimatedWaterLossGrams, estimatedDryMatterLossGrams, aboveCallerWiltLimit. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.

Input field	Meaning	Value type; see rules below	Requirement
initialLeafMassGrams	Initial leaf mass grams	number	Required
storedLeafMassGrams	Stored leaf mass grams	number	Required
initialDryMatterFraction	Initial dry matter fraction	number	Required
storedDryMatterFraction	Stored dry matter fraction	number	Required
callerMaximumWiltFraction	Caller maximum wilt fraction	number	Required

Use positive initial grams, stored mass from zero through initial, dry fractions and wilt limit in [0,1]. Report total loss, signed water and dry-matter changes, and a flag strictly above the supplied wilt fraction.^[1]

mass loss fraction = 1 − stored/initial

Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
totalMassLossFraction	Total mass loss fraction	number
estimatedWaterLossGrams	Estimated water loss grams	number
estimatedDryMatterLossGrams	Estimated dry matter loss grams	number
aboveCallerWiltLimit	Above caller wilt limit	boolean

Limitations and assumptions

Signed component estimates remain visible; the screen does not diagnose spoilage.

Numbers and computed results must be finite; overflow produces an error. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors. A successfully returned false flag is an evaluated outcome; its meaning is explained above.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use Leaf Moisture Nutrition Checker: Screen moisture plus dry-assay-to-fresh protein against caller criteria; distinct from existing standalone leaf dry-matter content, with no nutritional adequacy diagnosis. For a complementary task, use Cocoon FCR Leaf Conversion: Compute net consumed fresh/dry leaf per fresh cocoon harvest after separately assayed leftovers; unlike biomass-gain fish FCR, cocoon harvest is an explicitly different denominator.
