Radiocarbon in otoliths of yelloweye rockfish (<i>Sebastes ruberrimus</i>): a reference time series for the coastal waters of southeast Alaska
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Atmospheric testing of thermonuclear devices during the 1950s and 1960s created a global radiocarbon (14C) signal that has provided a useful tracer and chronological marker in oceanic systems and organisms. The bomb-generated 14C signal retained in fish otoliths can be used as a time-specific recorder of the 14C present in ambient seawater, making it a useful tool in age validation of fishes. The goal of this study was to determine 14C in otoliths of the age-validated yelloweye rockfish (Sebastes ruberrimus) to establish a reference time series for the coastal waters of southeast Alaska. Radiocarbon values from the first year's growth of 43 yelloweye rockfish otoliths plotted against estimated birth year produced a 14C time series (19401990) for these waters. The initial rise of 14C occurred in 1958 and 14C levels rose to peak values (6070) between 1966 and 1971, with a subsequent declining trend through the end of the record in 1990 (3.2). In addition, the 14C data confirmed the longevity of the yelloweye rockfish to a minimum of 44 years and strongly support higher age estimates. This 14C time series will be useful for the interpretation of 14C accreted in biological samples from these waters.

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.
