Abstract
Over the last 3 years, extensive fractures have appeared in the ∼3000‐yr‐old Ward Hunt Ice Shelf (83°N,75°W).The largest fracture, a north‐south‐oriented serpentine feature (Figure l), now forms an obvious dividing line between the west and east sides of the ice shelf. Secondary fractures extending westward from the central fracture have fragmented a large area of the ice shelf into free‐floating ice blocks. The fractures have severely weakened the ice shelf, although for the moment it remains pinned in place by a number of islands and ice rises. An immediate consequence of the fracturing was the catastrophic drainage of a fresh water lake that was dammed behind the ice shelf. This “epishelf” lake represented a rare ecosystem type in the northern hemisphere, which was particularly vulnerable to climate change. In a recent paper in Geophysical Research Letters [ Mueller et al. , 2003], a recent 30‐year period of accelerated warming, part of a longer 20th‐century warming trend, is implicated as a factor in the fracturing of the ice shelf and the drainage of the epishelf lake.

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
