Abstract
Results from in-flight measurements of dynamic soaring in wandering albatrosses are presented. The experimental results were obtained using a new computational method based on L1 phase measurement as well as miniaturized and low cost GPS logging devices featuring a sufficiently high data sampling rate. Thus, it was possible to determine precisely the flight path and the motion quantities of the birds. Wind information was obtained using SeaWinds on QuikSCAT Level 3 Daily, Gridded Ocean Wind Vectors (JPL SeaWinds Project). The presented results show how albatrosses manage to make progress against the wind in non-flapping flight by means of dynamic soaring.

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
