Abstract
In managed forests, partial harvest within riparian areas is one way to provide harvest opportunities and maintain some of the functions of riparian vegetation. We examined the response of coniferous seedlings to a 50 %-partial harvest in a second-growth, coniferous riparian forest in the Pacific Northwest. Partial canopy opening facilitated the establishment of Tsuga heterophylla and Thuja plicata, but Pseudotsuga menziesii did not show the same tendency. Results suggested that differences in seedling establishment were related to differences in light. Increased light availability also stimulated growth of Rubus spectabilis, especially in moist sites, and the dense cover precluded establishment of coniferous seedlings. Once R. spectabilis was established, continued stem recruitment maintained a dense stable cover, and even intense disturbance did not affect the stability of the populations. R. spectabilis would be a major competitor to constrain conifer seedlings to regenerate in riparian zones. Although Gaultheria shallon extended their cover, competition from dense G. shallon was not as severe as from R. spectabilis.

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
