The Steensby Inlet Ice Stream in the context of the deglaciation of Northern Baffin Island, Eastern Arctic Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Deglaciation of northern Baffin Island involved several large ice streams with contrasting histories. Three north‐flowing, marine‐based ice streams were in place during the Last Glacial Maximum, but they retreated at widely varying rates during the early and middle Holocene. The Steensby Inlet Ice Stream formed in response to over‐steepening of the ice front during deglaciation of Foxe Basin. It caused an abrupt change, in places a general reversal, of flow about 6 ka BP and operated across its full width for only about 500 years. Nevertheless, it left a distinct subglacial footprint, including an hourglass shaped bedform set. A dense network of till samples from the region of the ice stream reveals a sharp‐sided, pluglike dispersal of carbonate debris that was sustained by erosion in the source area of about 5 mm a −1 . The ice stream devolved into valley‐controlled ice streams separated by cold‐based ice over interfluves. The former evacuated debris along valleys and left erosional till scarps along the sides of sliding ice. Post‐ice‐stream end moraines, including the large Gifford Moraine, require later cold‐based flow across the drumlins formed by the ice stream. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

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.
