Abstract
Water column depth profiles along the North Pacific margin from Point Conception to the tip of Baja California indicate elevation of nitrate (NO 3 − ) 15 N/ 14 N and 18 O/ 16 O associated with denitrification in the oxygen‐deficient thermocline waters of the eastern tropical North Pacific. The increase in δ 18 O is up to 3‰ greater than in δ 15 N, whereas our experiments with denitrifier cultures in seawater medium indicate a 1:1 increase in NO 3 − δ 18 O and δ 15 N during NO 3 − consumption. Moreover, the maximum in NO 3 − δ 18 O is somewhat shallower than the maximum in NO 3 − δ 15 N. These two observations can be summarized as an “anomaly” from the 1:1 δ 18 O‐to‐δ 15 N relationship expected from culture results. Comparison among stations and with other data indicates that this anomaly is generated locally. The anomaly has two plausible interpretations: (1) the addition of low‐δ 15 N NO 3 − to the shallow thermocline by the remineralization of newly fixed nitrogen, or (2) active cycling between NO 3 − and NO 2 − (coupled NO 3 − reduction and NO 2 − oxidation) in the suboxic zone.

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
