Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A calibrated Rhizocarpon spp. lichen growth curve spanning the last 680 yr was developed for the Bella Coola and Mount Waddington areas, southern Coast Mountains of British Columbia (Canada). It is based on 18 control surfaces whose ages were determined using radiocarbon dates, tree-ring dated moraines, and ice front positions derived from historical air photographs. Population distribution statistics were used to assess the validity of each control lichen measurement. The relationship is characterized by logarithmic growth during the first 100 yr following surface stabilization, and is described as linear for the successive 600 yr. Application of the curve at Tiedemann Glacier revealed evidence for six periods of late-Neoglacial moraine formation in ca. AD 620, 925, 1118, 1392, 1575, and 1621. The study confirms the importance of incorporating a multisite approach and a lichen population dynamic assessment. Large samples sizes and replication are also noted as necessary in order to adequately assess any dating errors.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
