Abstract
Fossil plants of Paleocene age (62 to 59.7 Ma) are preserved within lava sequences in the Hebrides and Northern Ireland. These lavas, collectively referred to as the British Tertiary Volcanic Group (BTVP), were formed due to rifting in the North Atlantic. The fossil floras represent forests that grew between the lavas in periods of quiescence, during which fluvio-lacustrine environments developed on the lava surfaces. The fossil plants provide information on the composition of the Paleocene vegetation and the climate during that interval. \nNew collections of fossil plants have been made from the Isle of Skye and other collections from Ardtun on Mull were studied. The Allt Mor locality on Skye (60.16 ± 0.45 Ma) has \nprovided the majority of the specimens for this study and represents a pond deposit where broadleaved angiosperm and conifer leaves accumulated. Fourteen angiosperm morphotypes \nhave been identified, many of which show similarities to modern families, including the Platanaceae, Cercidiphyllaceae, Betulaceae, Fagaceae, Juglandaceae, Vitaceae, Cornaceae and Trochodendraceae. Conifer fossils include three ovulate cone types and eight shoot \nmorphotypes attributed to the Cupressaceae and Pinaceae. The Allt Mor assemblage indicates that mixed coniferous forests developed within a palaeovalley, with the vegetation fringing the valley sides and colonising the floodplains of the valley floor. The vegetation of Allt Mor was dominated by climax conifers similar to Metasequoia, Sequoia, Chamaecyparis and Thuja. \nBroadleaved angiosperms such as Platanites, Trochodendroides, Corylites and "Platycarya cf" dominated the riparian margins and formed an understory of trees and shrubs in the conifer forests. Comparison with Paleocene floras from other Northern Hemisphere localities indicates \nthat the floras of Skye are most similar to those of the Arctic, particularly those of Svalbard, Greenland and Canada, and were thus part of the Arcto-Tertiary floras of the northern high latitudes. \nPalaeoclimate estimates derived from the fossil angiosperm leaves indicate that the climate of Skye had a mean annual temperature (MAT) of -5°C to 9°C, was seasonal with warm summers (warm month mean 19.0°C to 25.8°C) and cool to cold winters (cold month mean -3.0°C to 4.2°C). Comparisons with the flora of Ardtun on Mull (60.5 ± 0.3 Ma) reveal that, although these floras share many of the same taxa, the flora is different, with angiosperms dominant, and the conifers that are common in the Allt Mor assemblage are rare or absent. The Ardtun flora also contains thermophilic plants such as Camptodromites major, C. multinervatus and \nAmentotaxus gladifolia, which are not present on Skye. Palaeoclimatedata from these fossil plants indicate significant cooling during the mid-Paleocene, confirmed by other marine and terrestrial proxies, marking a cool climate phase in the middle of the otherwise globally warm Paleocene climate.

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.
