Abstract
Cultivated bivalves rely on natural seston for growth and metabolic processes. Because seston is a limited resource, there is a need to better understand its distribution and fluxes within culture embayments, so farms can be positioned optimally within these dynamic systems. In this study, a simple numerical tool was developed and implemented to address actual management issues related to the positioning of oyster Crassostrea virginica farms in the Richibucto Estuary (eastern Canada). The versatile procedure relied on hydrodynamic modelling and tracer advection-dispersion to reproduce the spatial and temporal dynamics of seston availability. The model identified 3 areas of interest within the estuary, each with unique water renewal rates and seston concentrations. The method also revealed major interactions between the different areas, and proved efficient in quantifying the effects of topographical alterations on seston availability. Our results suggest that such basic modelling tools produce relevant information in a timely manner, and thereby facilitate the necessary dialogue between science advisors, industry stakeholders and resource managers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
