Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Relationships between watershed characteristics and mean wadi flood peaks in arid regions are investigated. Mean flood peak discharge was derived for 12 watersheds ranging from 64 to 1730 km2 in Oman using 270 flood events from 10 years of record. Fourteen watershed characteristics were automatically extracted from a digital elevation model, and multiple regression was used to investigate the effect of these characteristics on wadi mean peak flow (Q MPF) and 5-, 10-, 20-, 50- and 100-year return period flood peaks. Drainage area (DA), wadi slope (WS), watershed mean elevation (BE) and agricultural/farm area (FR) were found to be the key variables affecting flood flows. As return period increased, the influence of BE on flood-peak estimation decreased. In addition, urbanization is increasing alongside increasing agricultural areas, and the inclusion of FR in the relationship improved the variance explanation by 11% over models using only traditional variables such as DA and BE.

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.
