Late Wisconsin ice-flow history in the Buffalo Head Hills kimberlite field, north-central Alberta
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ice flow of the last glaciation in the Buffalo Head Hills kimberlite field of northern Alberta is reconstructed from landform interpretations and clast orientations for the purpose of aiding kimberlite exploration in the region. The paucity of bedrock outcrop and the absence of preserved striae and other erosional ice-flow indicators on the soft Cretaceous marine sediments inhibit detailed interpretations on glacial flow chronology. Poorly developed bedrock drumlins on the Buffalo Head Hills and erosional ice-flow indicators preserved on the kimberlite outcrops indicate southwestward ice flow during the maximum extent of ice during the last glaciation. During the deglaciation of northern Alberta, later phases of ice flow were controlled by lobes of surging ice, which surged into proglacial lakes. West of the Buffalo Head Hills, the maximum phase of southwest flow was followed by southeastward ice movement of the Peace River ice lobe. Similarly, east of the Buffalo Head Hills, the maximum phase of ice flow was superceded by a south-southwest ice advance of the Wasbasca ice lobe.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
