Moving repatriation efforts forward for imperilled Canadian freshwater fishes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened environments on our planet. Disturbances across the terrestrial landscape accrue within freshwater ecosystems and, combined with global stressors such as climate change and invasive species, create a complex situation for recovering imperilled fishes. Given the drastic global decline of freshwater fishes, similarly extreme efforts are needed for their conservation and recovery — repatriation represents one such opportunity. Species repatriation describes the act of releasing a species in areas where extirpation has occurred. Paradoxically, a long history of fish introductions for recreational purposes exists, yet examples of repatriation for imperilled fishes are relatively rare compared with terrestrial species. Stemming from the restoration and species introduction literature, we identify five ecological themes to consider when evaluating repatriation potential of freshwater fishes and suggest that repatriation represents the “drastic” approach needed to achieve meaningful conservation milestones.

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.
