Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter focuses on environmental change in another area of North America: the upper Rio Grande valley which came under Spanish rule between 1598 and 1821. It examines just how Spanish culture and society brought about new relationships between human societies, including Pueblo Indians and the land, and how changes in the land occurred as a result of those relationships. The kind of physical and natural world in which the Spanish settled provides an important context for any discussion of environmental change. Ccholars today dexribe north-central New Mexico as posscssing essentially five different life zones: the Upper Conoran, Transi tional, Canadian, Hudsonian, and Arctic-Alpine. Demography, especially numbers of people and where they relocated, is an important starting point for understanding the factors affecting environmental change. The Spanish introduction of grazing animals, termed “ganado mayor,” cattle and horses, and “ganado menor,” sheep and goats, into colonial New Mexico altered the face of the land in dramatic ways.

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.
