Seed dispersal by small herbivores and tidal water: are they important filters in the assembly of salt‐marsh communities?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Summary Characteristics of internal seed dispersal (endozoochory) by European Brown Hares were compared with similar dispersal by Brent Geese. Hares deposited more seeds of mid‐successional, perennial, high‐marsh species than did geese, which deposited more seeds of early successional, annual, low‐marsh species. Seed survival and germination of salt‐marsh species were higher after ingestion and passage through the digestive system of hares compared with geese. Both hares and geese had a negative effect on the percentage of seeds that germinated in comparison with uningested seeds. Small herbivores (hares and geese) dispersed two orders of magnitude fewer seeds than those dispersed by tidal water. Thus these herbivores are not likely to be important filters (constraints) in community assembly at this salt‐marsh site on a coastal island in the Netherlands.

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.
