Increasingly, moment magnitude, MW, is seen as the magnitude of preference. Moment magnitude, however, was not routinely calculated in the past for earthquakes in Canada, necessitating the conversion from other magnitude types in common use. This step is complicated by the fact that several magnitude scales are routinely reported for Canadian earthquakes with the choice being influenced primarily by geography and to a lesser extent by the size of the earthquake. This paper focuses on eastern Canada, where mN is the most commonly used magnitude scale. Conversions to MW are established and evaluated. The simple conversion of applying a constant is sufficient. However, the conversion is time dependent with the constant changing from 0.41 to 0.53 in the mid-1990s.

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
