Abstract
Diatoms have evolved an obligate requirement for silica for their ornamented cell wall. Diatom productivity and subsequent burial of their siliceous remains on the ocean floor is a major control on the marine silica cycle. The ecological success of the diatoms over the Mesozoic and Cenozoic is associated with biogeographic shifts in siliceous sponges, decreasing silicification in the radiolarians, and a global decrease in oceanic silicic acid concentrations. We review what is known about the evolutionary advantages of the silica frustule and how selection pressures, including decreasing silicic acid concentrations, changes in growth limiting nutrients other than Si, CO2, irradiance, predation and viral pressures have shaped the morphology of the frustule over the Mesozoic and Cenozoic.

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
