Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Partial clutch loss during egg-laying and incubation was examined in Wood Ducks Aix sponsa nesting near Ottawa, Ontario. Over four years, partial clutch loss occurred in 20% of nests, accounting for 2% of all eggs laid. Missing eggs did not appear to be the result of predation. Larger or early clutches were no more likely than sm aller or later clutches to have eggs disappear. Wood Duck eggs did not disappear more often from Wood Duck nests that also contained Hooded Merganser Mergus cucul latus eggs, but Wood Duck eggs laid in Hooded Merganser nests disappeared more than host merganser eggs.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
