Effect of salt exclusion from lake ice on seasonal circulation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We describe the circulation of Tailings Lake, located 220 km north of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. From Jul 2004 to Sep 2007, temperature and conductivity profiles were collected together with data from three moored temperature chains and a meteorological station. The salt content of the lake was elevated (salinity 1 g L −1 ) relative to surrounding natural waters (~0.1 g L −1 ). Winter ice cover included 60–80 cm of transparent "black" ice, which excluded up to 99% of the salt from the water as the ice formed. During winter, the salt excluded from the ice was mixed throughout the water column under the ice. In spring, ice melt and snow runoff resulted in a freshwater cap; the density contrast between this fresh epilimnion and the more saline hypolimnion was sufficient to inhibit spring turnover. In summer, the epilimnion was deepened by storms, mixing anoxic water from the hypolimnion into the surface layer. Because spring turnover was suppressed, oxygen replenishment of the hypolimnion occurred only in fall. Although Tailings Lake has been subject to numerous anthropogenic changes, similar effects can be expected in other natural and manmade water bodies with elevated salinity and significant ice cover.

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.
