Climate Change Impacts on Water in Georgia Basin/Puget Sound — Special Issue
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The papers contained in this special issue of the Canadian Water Resources Journal were presented during the March 31-April 3, 2003 Georgia Basin/Puget Sound Research Conference held in Vancouver, British Columbia.Co-hosted by Environment Canada-Pacific and Yukon Region, and the Puget Sound Action Team, the 2003 Georgia Basin-Puget Sound Research Conference was the sixth in a series of conferences representing the largest and most visible efforts to communicate research results among the region's scientists and natural resource managers.The conference provided a venue for the expression of the ecosystem-based management approach and provided an opportunity for crossborder scientists and decision-makers from a wide range of disciplines to share knowledge and information on important issues such as climate change impacts and adaptation, marine resources, transboundary air quality, indicator development and collaborative management approaches.The conference program included over fifty technical sessions, panel discussions, workshops, poster presentations and keynote speakers.Attendees included an international and multidisciplinary group of more than 800 university and government scientists, Coast Salish First Nations and Tribal representatives, regional politicians, students and community leaders.Climate change, and specifically, the consideration of means to reduce humancaused greenhouse gas emissions and to reduce the impact of changing climate on ecosystems and communities, figured prominently as a top-of-mind issue during this four-day event.While much of the research and analysis on climate change is being done on a global or other broad scale, the conference climate change sessions focused on how future climates might be realized on the scale of Georgia Basin/Puget Sound.The Georgia Basin-Puget Sound transboundary region is an ecologically and culturaliy diverse international ecosystem.The terrestrial extent of the ecosystem is loosely defined by height of land, watersheds and local government jurisdictional boundaries.The crests of the Olympic Mountains, the Vancouver Island Ranges, the Coast Ranges and the Cascades surround Georgia Basin.The region is climatologically

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.
