Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Preliminary surveys of the zooplankton of Lake Bosumtwi revealed copious amounts of larval stages of Chaoborus ceratopogones in the water column. Secondary production was subsequently determined to assess its role in the zooplankton community. Head capsule length distinguished consecutive larval instars without overlaps. Growth rates were low in instar I and pupae. Instars II and III were the focal points of population growth. Growth equations were used to compute stage-specific biomass and production. Mean larval density was 16,053±15,865 organisms per m3. Daily standing stock varied from 80 to 4180 mg dw m−3 and an annual average production of 920 mg dw m−3 yr−1. Prey biomass was weakly correlated with Chaoborus biomass so most of the variance in Chaoborus production was controlled by mechanisms external to food abundance. Transfer efficiency of Chaoborus production to planktivorous fish may be low because of intense fishing pressure on the lake.

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.
