Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The prominent Ungava Bay landform swarm (UBLS), covering an area of ˜260000 km 2 south of Ungava Bay, Canada, is defined by drumlins, crag‐and‐tails, horned crag‐and‐tails and flutes indicating convergent ice flow towards Ungava Bay. The UBLS has been difficult to interpret in terms of ice‐sheet configuration, dynamics and age. Aerial photograph and satellite image interpretations of the Labrador‐Ungava region reveal a previously unrecognized level of complexity within the UBLS consisting of several well‐defined segments, most interpreted as representing discrete stream‐flow events. Each of the segments is characterized by one or more of the criteria (convergent flow patterns at their heads, attenuated till lineations and abrupt lateral margins) previously suggested as diagnostic for formation by fast‐flowing ice (ice streams). The UBLS reflects the most direct and probably fastest contact (in terms of sediment transport) between the Laurentide Ice Sheet interior and the ocean. It is therefore a prime candidate for abrupt changes in glacial‐age northwest Atlantic seafloor sedimentation.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
