Abstract
Abstract A recent high‐resolution record of Late‐glacial CO 2 change from Dome Concordia in Antarctica reveals a trend of increasing CO 2 across the Younger Dryas stadial (GS‐1). These results are in good agreement with previous Antarctic ice‐core records. However, they contrast markedly with a proxy CO 2 record based on the stomatal approach to CO 2 reconstruction, which records a ca. 70 ppm mean CO 2 decline at the onset of GS‐1. To address these apparent discrepancies we tested the validity of the stomatal‐based CO 2 reconstructions from Kråkenes by obtaining further proxy CO 2 records based on a similar approach using fossil leaves from two independent lakes in Atlantic Canada. Our Late‐glacial CO 2 reconstructions reveal an abrupt ca. 77 ppm decrease in atmospheric CO 2 at the onset of the Younger Dryas stadial, which lagged climatic cooling by ca. 130 yr. Furthermore, the trends recorded in the most accurate high‐resolution ice‐core record of CO 2 , from Dome Concordia, can be reproduced from our stomatal‐based CO 2 records, when time‐averaged by the mean age distribution of air contained within Dome Concordia ice (200 to 550 yr). If correct, our results indicate an abrupt drawdown of atmospheric CO 2 within two centuries at the onset of GS‐1, suggesting that some re‐evaluation of the behaviour of atmospheric CO 2 sinks and sources during times of rapid climatic change, such as the Late‐glacial, may be required.

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
