Holocene environmental history of the Aishihik Region, Yukon, Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A 2.7 m sediment core from WA01, a small pond in Southwest Yukon, Canada (unofficial name, 61°14′41″N, 136°55′35″W, 1000 m above sea level), documents the postglacial vegetation and climate history of the Aishihik Basin. Open birch–shrub tundra established at the site ca. 10 900 cal years BP, immediately after deglaciation. Picea glauca established ca. 10 200 cal years BP, and an open spruce forest ecosystem has since remained dominant on the landscape. A gradual increase in Alnus crispa, starting ca. 6600 cal years BP, has also been noted in other studies from Central Yukon, suggesting a significant climate transition in Yukon at this time. An alternating pattern in sediment loss-on-ignition, also beginning ca. 6600 cal years BP, may be broadly related to trends in ∂18O values from the Mount Logan and Jellybean Lake oxygen isotope records, and is most likely reflective of periodic changes in available moisture in the region resulting from alterations in the strength and position of the Aleutian Low pressure system. However, millennial-scale climate variability identified in ice core and sediment records had little impact on the forests of the region.

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.
