Morphometry and environmental characteristics of turf‐banked solifluction lobes, Kluane Range, Yukon Territory, Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Measurements of turf‐banked solifluction lobes at a site in the Kluane Range, Yukon Territory, are compared to observations made by L.W. Price of similar features located 50 km to the north in the Ruby Range. Both studies show that a threshold depth of snow is necessary for lobes to develop. The relative importance of solifluction on slopes with different orientations, however, is not congruent. The largest lobes at our site are present on northeast‐facing slopes and the smallest on northwest‐facing slopes. Lobe dimensions increase downslope in association with a greater organic mat thickness, a higher soil fines content, and a reduced late‐summer thaw depth. Riser heights that are large relative to tread length‐to‐width ratios are correlated with a thin organic mat, a thick active layer and a high coarse particle content. The lobe plan‐form, described by the ratio of tread length to tread width, is significantly correlated with only one biophysical variable. Mean and median length‐to‐width ratios are below unity for all aspects at our site and in several other studies, suggesting a common evolutionary form. A cycle of solifluction lobe development is proposed, in which a lobe enlarges to a maximum size that depends on micro‐site environmental characteristics. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
