Abstract

Defines CI = CI₀ × S where CI₀ is intrinsic consciousness capacity (multiplicative across channel capacity, network integration density, and control depth) and S is a survival condition modifier. Human average CI₀ = 100 serves as the calibration constant. Derives CI₀ rankings for 100 species from bacteria to humans. Several species exceed the human average CI₀ of 100: dolphins, crows, chimpanzees, parrots. Five falsifiable predictions including measurable effects of mycorrhizal disruption on tree integration scores.
