Upper Pleistocene glacial valley-junction sediments at Pias, Trevinca Mountains, NW Spain
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Sediments at Pias (Galicia) provide evidence of Upper Pleistocene glacial activities at a valley junction in the north-western mountains of Spain. The sedimentary sequence consists of lower, predominately fine-grained lacustrine deposits with few lonestones, overlain by poorly sorted, sandy gravels interstratified with massive diamicton deposited during mid-Weichselian times (MIS 3) (marine isotope stage 3). The lacustrine sediments were deposited in a glacial valley temporarily dammed by a confluent glacier. The presence of active ice is suggested by massive diamicton layers best interpreted as till, rafted sediments in lacustrine deposits and deformation structures indicative of loading and kettle formation. Frozen ground conditions are suggested by a few involution-like structures. The Pias area contains one of the few western-Spain sedimentary records of Upper Pleistocene glaciation at relatively low latitude (about 42°N) and low altitude (less than 1000 m a.s.l.). A southern dip of the Polar front to 40–45°N latitudes, as occurred during Last Glacial Maximum, could have cut moisture to the northern Fennoscandinavian ice sheets. At the same time, however, sufficient precipitations would have persisted in north-western Spain to sustain extensive ice caps and their outlets to elevations as low as c. 900 m a.s.l.

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.
