I did apply the Linda Chalker Scott method that is on her thesis. It is relevant to use the releases at ambient and overlethal temperatures as relative parameters for scaling. Leaf age and water salinity change these reference values, and several authors apply other releases as phenolics. http://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/xmlui/bitstream/handle/1957/25663/CHALKERSCOTTLINDA1989.pdf?sequence=1#page=74
