Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) feed during spawning off Newfoundland and Labrador
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Krumsick, K. J., and Rose, G. A. 2012. Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) feed during spawning off Newfoundland and Labrador. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 1701–1709. We test a current assumption that Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) off Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, do not feed during the protracted spawning season (March–September). Stomach contents were analysed from 10 473 cod from four Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization regions (2J, 3K, 3L, and 3Ps) over 9 years from which gonads were also analysed to determine sex and maturity status. Adult cod in spawning condition did feed in all regions, usually at rates equivalent to or even greater than non-spawning fish and juveniles. Both sexes fed during spawning, though females consumed lesser amounts. Regional differences were evident. The total fullness index was greater in the northern (2J) than the southern (3Ps) region, with no consistent differences between spawners and non-spawners. The most southerly region (3Ps) exhibited the greatest prey diversity, the northern region (2J) the least. Shrimp was the major diet item in the northern regions. Capelin, zooplankton, crab, and other fish increased in importance to the south. Differences in prey items between non-spawning and spawning individuals of both sexes were possibly related to spawning behaviour. Models using consumption rates should not assume that cod do not feed during the protracted spawning season in these waters.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
