Changes in geometry and subglacial drainage derived from digital elevation models: Unteraargletscher, Switzerland, 1927–97
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Digital elevation models of the bed and surface of Unteraargletscher, Switzerland, are used to reconstruct the theoretical pattern of basal water drainage for the years 1927, 1947, 1961 and 1997, during which period the glacier was thinning and receding. The theoretical drainage pattern for 1997 compares well, in a broad sense, with the locations of active moulins and the hydraulic connection status of boreholes drilled to the glacier bed. Changes in the basal water-flow pattern over the period 1927–97 that are revealed by the theoretical reconstructions of the subglacial drainage system structure are likely to have resulted from changes in glacier geometry. Concurrent with the retreat and thinning of the glacier, the height of medial moraines increased, probably due to the insulating effect of the debris cover reducing the melt of the underlying ice. This increase of moraine heights has led to the formation of hydraulic barriers at the glacier bed such that water flow has become channelized beneath the ice along drainage axes that parallel the course of the medial moraines on the glacier surface.

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.
