Abstract

A system and method for accurately estimating cutaneous water loss resulting from exercise. The system comprises a component to determine the ambient temperature and a component to determine the total energy expenditure resulting from exercise. The cutaneous water loss is calculated with the equation: Cutaneous Water Loss=(m*(air temperature)+b)*(energy expenditure) where m is a function of air temperature and h is a constant.
