Oceanography of the Grand Banks Region of Newfoundland in 1973
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Three Ice Patrol cruises from April to July 1973 were conducted to the Grand Banks to determine sea surface currents for input to a computer model for the prediction of iceberg drift. During a three week period in June-July three Intensive Dynamic Surveys were performed in an approximately 1 degree latitude square within the Ice Patrol survey area to provide data sets to test a developmental numerical model for predicting dynamic changes of the Labrador Current on the eastern slope of the Grand Banks. Analysis of the sea surface geostrophy and the water mass properties revealed that the North Atlantic Current was to be found approximately 74 km farther north than its usual position and by impinging on the Tail-of-the-Bank forced a portion of the Labrador Current up onto the Bank. The May cruise data disclosed the formation of a large cyclonic meander in the North Atlantic Current, which was believed to produce the cyclonic ring found to the south in the warm water gradient of the North Atlantic Current. This may be a mechanism for transporting icebergs across the North Atlantic Current and would account for the occasional sightings of icebergs southeast of the warm current. Near bottom direct current measurements made on the eastern slope of the Grand Banks had mean speeds of 2.0 cm/s in April-May and 5.3 cm/s in May-June, and the direction was mainly southwest. The only identifiable periodic component was the lunar semidiurnal tide which was intermittently detected.

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.
