Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study examined the spatial and temporal variability of throughflow in a shallow forest oil in terms of the controls exerted by topography, soil properties and the shape of the water table. Hillslope outflow was measured at nine troughs installed at a road cut, and hydraulic head was measured at 37 piezometers installed to the confining till surface at the base of the soil. At the lowest flows, the distribution of throughflow across the hillslope conformed reasonably to the distribution of upslope contributing area computed from the topography of the confining basal till layer. At higher flows, however, the distribution of throughflow shifted, partly as a result of changes in the orientation in flow tubes as the piezometric surface changed. At high flows, surface topography appeared to provide a reasonable proxy for the shape of the water table. Shunting of water through discrete macropores, however, can apparently overwhelm topographic controls on throughflow, at least for slope widths less than about 10 m. Effective hydraulic conductivities computed at the scale of the troughs varied over two orders of magnitude and displayed no consistent relationship with the thickness of the saturated layer. Estimates at the plot scale (c. 10 m hillslope width) were far less variable, and for higher flows displayed an approximately linear relationship with saturated zone thickness.

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.
