Abstract
This research describes the impact of the bedrock island structure on the circulation and stratification of a macrotidal, partially mixed estuary in northwestern Canada (the Skeena River Estuary). Due to ongoing development in this formerly remote region, pressures have increased within the Skeena River Estuary over the past decade. However, there is still limited understanding of the estuary's morphodynamics due to its deviation from a 'typical' estuarine morphology. Located along an emergent, fjordal coastline, the Skeena Estuary River drains into a basin confined by bedrock and interrupted by multiple, irregular bedrock islands. Observations suggest that a subaqueous delta, associated facies, and the surface plume are split between several bedrock passages with limited information on the governing hydrodynamic processes. To overcome this, Acoustic Doppler current profiler cross-sectional transects and conductivity, temperature, depth, and turbidity profiles were taken in the nearshore (under 40 m) at locations across the estuary over two different (by ~1000 m3s-1) river stages. Over multiple dates with various river inflows, the tidal ratio to river inflow produces varied stratification patterns at a given site. During one point in time and river stage, bedrock passages are disproportionally exposed to marine and fluvial inflows, creating spatially diverse stratification patterns across the estuary. Stratification and passage morphology interactions determine the characteristics of tidal slack transitions, with horizontal and vertical separation occurring during well-mixed conditions and stratified conditions, respectively.

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.
