Density-dependent distribution of demersal juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in Placentia Bay, Newfoundland
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Age 0 cod (Gadus morhua) were surveyed with beach-seines monthly from September to December, 1997–1999, at sites located throughout Placentia Bay, Newfoundland. Catch rates (densities) varied annually, being highest in 1998 (7 fish per sample) and lowest in 1997 (<1). Each year, fish size and density increased from September to November, as expected from a stock that tends to produce a single cohort spawned in April/May. However, in December the expected larger fish were absent, and the presence of smaller cod suggested a later cohort (July spawning). Large-scale spatial patterns also persisted among years, with densities consistently higher in the inner bay and on the western side, and lower on the eastern side. The rank of the sites from greatest to lowest density of age 0 cod remained fairly consistent among years. In a comparison of all 12 sampling events, the proportion of sites occupied by cod was strongly and positively correlated with the total number caught (r2 = 0.95). These observations suggested a density-dependent range expansion not previously reported for age 0 cod.

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.
