Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Total arsenic concentrations and the chemical form, or species, of arsenic were determined in amphibians (Rana clamitans and Bufo americanus) collected from a site with elevated arsenic concentrations in Nova Scotia, Canada. Frog legs had significantly elevated total arsenic concentrations at a contaminated site when compared with a nearby background site and a calculation of the estimated daily intake rates of arsenic indicates that both diet (invertebrate intake) and water absorption are important sources of arsenic for these adult organisms. Body burdens of tetramethylarsonium were similar for both the contaminated and background site, with up to 50% of the total arsenic contained in frog legs in the form of the tetramethylarsonium ion.

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.
