Relationships between nitrogen, phosphorus and diel dissolved oxygen cycles in the Bow River, Calgary, Alberta before and after a century-scale flood
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High nutrient loading to rivers increases aquatic plant and algal growth resulting in low dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations. The overall objective of this thesis was to examine the relationship of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in diel DO cycles induced by periphyton and macrophyte photosynthesis and respiration in the Bow River. I tested periphyton and macrophyte nutrient limitation status directly using fertilization experiments at multiple locations within Calgary’s wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent affected urban footprint. My results show that immediately after the 2013 flooding, primary production was limited by P (periphyton) or N+P (macrophytes). I investigated empirical relationships between periphyton, macrophytes and diel dissolved oxygen concentrations before and after a 1 in 100-year flooding event. The near complete removal of macrophytes was associated with only a transient decrease in the magnitude of diel DO oscillations at sites downstream of WWTPs.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
