Year-class strength and growth rates after metamorphosis of Japanese sardine (Sardinops melanostictus) in the western North Pacific Ocean during 1996–2003
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Growth trajectories during larval to early juvenile stages in Japanese sardine ( Sardinops melanostictus ) were backcalculated based on the widths of otolith daily increments from 1996 to 2003 in the nursery grounds, Kuroshio–Oyashio transitional waters. Planktonic larvae hatched near Kuroshio have been transported northeastward from the Kuroshio waters to the transitional waters. We show that the somatic growth rates sharply increased after metamorphosis to the early juvenile stage, whereas previously, others showed that growth rate decreases during the larval stage. Otolith growth rates were more variable during the juvenile stage than the larval stage. Interannual variations in the otolith growth rate after metamorphosis explained more than 80% of variation in abundances of recruits (ca. 8–10 months old) in the Pacific coastal waters, whereas no correlation was found between the growth rate during the early larval stage and abundance. Our result was consistent with the hypothesis of growth rate-dependent recruitment success in the Kuroshio–Oyashio transitional waters.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
