Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Lichen Creek (NTS 94I/14) map area was inundated by the Laurentide Ice Sheet during the late Wisconsinan glaciation (ca. 25 000 - 10 000 years ago). A thick blanket of clay and fine-silt-rich till was deposited across most of the region by westward flowing ice; glacial flow direction is depicted by flutings that show divergent flow directions around a bedrock headland in the southeast part of the map. Bedrock is also exposed beneath till veneer in a road cut and borrow pit in the north-central map area. Till exposures in regional borrow pits exhibit thicknesses >4 m, and the presence of clast-pavements and other unconformities suggests considerable thrusting and stacking of till sheets has occurred in this area. The area is flat to gently northward inclined, and is extensively blanketed by bog and fen deposits. Areas of hummocky peatland and thermokarst are present but generally less extensive here than in adjoining map areas; discontinuous permafrost conditions are likely to exist in the map area. Hummocky areas extending only a few metres above the regional organic terrain are covered by an aspen-dominated Boreal forest cover. Regional patterns of these forested-hummocks correlate with interpreted crevasse-squeeze ridges, and small, discontinuous recessional moraines that mark the east-southeastward retreat of ice. Lateral meltwater channels that run oblique and perpendicular across the bedrock-cored upland in the southern part of the map indicate that ice persisted to the south of the Lichen Creek map after the northern and central regions were deglaciated. No new granular aggregate resources were discovered in the map area, although the various galiofluvial terraces (Gt) in the northwest and along the Sahtaneh River may be candidates for field exploration. The esker complex in the northwest corner is comprised of almost entirely sand and therefore offers little aggregate potential. Bedrock exposed in the region is poorly consolidated Shaftesbury Formation shale, and similarly offers little granular aggregate potential.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
