Analysis of hydrographic and stable isotope data to determine water masses, circulation, and mixing in the eastern Great Australian Bight
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hydrographic and stable isotope data from waters in the eastern Great Australian Bight (GAB) sampled during March–April 1998 indicate that both mixing and evaporative processes are important on the shelf. Five water masses are defined on the basis of their temperature, salinity, δ 2 H and δ 18 O values. Two of these are end‐members, the Flinders Current (FC) and the Great Australian Bight Plume (GABP), whereas the other three are a result of mixing between these two end‐members. Water mass distribution reflects an anticyclonic gyre in the eastern GAB. Cool and fresh water present at depth along the Eyre Peninsula is sourced from upwelling of Flinders Current water directly from the shelf break. This water is progressively heated, evaporated, and mixed with warmer and more saline shelf waters as it flows around the gyre. High temperatures, salinities, and δ 2 H values in surface waters in the central GAB suggest that the Great Australian Bight Plume has a greater spatial extent than previously recorded, also occurring along the shelf edge between 130°E and 133°E. A high temperature, high salinity, low δ 2 H water mass that is isotopically similar to the Flinders Current occurs in the west of the study area, indicating intrusion of Flinders Current water into the central GAB. Differences in isotopic compositions of off‐shelf water suggest that the Great Australian Bight Plume is flowing off the shelf and mixing with Flinders Current water at ∼132°E; however, this outflow does not generate an eastward flowing current during the period when samples were collected.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
