Abstract
We report the solid-liquid partitioning of Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn in 60 organic horizon samples of forest soils from the Hermine Watershed (St-Hippolyte, PQ, Canada). The mean Kd values are respectively 1132, 966, 802, 3337 and 561. Comparison of those Kd coefficients to published compilation values show that the Kd values are lower in acidic organic soil horizons relative to the overall mean Kd values compiled for mineral soils. But, once normalized to a mean pH of 4.4, the Kd values in organic soil horizons demonstrate the high sorption affinity of organic matter, which is either as good as or up to 30 times higher than mineral soil materials for sorbing trace metals. Regression analysis shows that, within our data set, pH and total metal contents are not consistent predictors of metal partitioning. Indeed, metal sorption by the solid phase must be studied in relation to complexation by dissolved organic ligands, and both processes may sometime counteract one another.

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 it
