Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There has been great transition of fisheries in Atlantic Canada especially in Newfoundland these ten years, after the collapse of cod. The statistics of landing quantity, value, and number of fishers in Newfoundland & Labrador show that while landings and number of fishers have decreased by half, landed value has doubled. However, seeing only these rough figures, very important issue of how the real situation of industries and people's lives has been changed can easily missed. I will analyze influence of this drastic transition based on my research in Atlantic Canada, which includes interviews with fishers, processing companies and concerned individuals in St. Anthony, St. John's of Newfoundland and Ottawa. At the moment, there are 5 topics of real implications of the drastic transformation of these 10 years that needs to be examined. 1) Change in the species: The specie of caught fish has shifted from relatively cheaper groundfish to more expensive shellfish. 2) Differentiation in the classes of enterprises: Shellfish fishers dominate the upper class and fishers who catch several species with small boats belong to the lower class. 3) Growing processing companies' influence: The power of processing companies toward fishers has significantly increased. 4) Functional disorder of fishers' organizations: Organizations made before the collapse of cod have become unsuitable to the state. 5) Influence on communities: The change has had great influence on traditional communities which have been dependent on fisheries and processing industries.

Not 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.
