Deglacial dynamics of the Foxe–Baffin Ice Sheet, Frobisher Bay, Nunavut, Canada revealed by submarine landform mapping
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Previous interpretation of the nature and distribution of subaerial glacial landforms established that Frobisher Bay in southeastern Baffin Island was glaciated in the Late Wisconsinan by ice flowing southeast from the Foxe–Baffin Ice Dome. New seafloor mapping within the bay has revealed submarine glacial landforms that are described and interpreted in the context of their subglacial, ice‐marginal, glaciomarine and marine process environments. Interpretation of the evidence confirms that ice occupied Frobisher Bay, flowing from the northwest to southeast, parallel to the orientation of the bay. Relatively rapid ice velocities are indicated by the presence of ice‐moulded bedrock and megaridges flanking a deep trough (>700 m) along the faulted southern flank of Frobisher Bay. In shallower regions, areal scouring and channelisation indicate the widespread presence of glacial ice. As ice retreated to the northwest towards the Foxe Ice Dome, De Geer and recessional moraines were deposited at the ice front. The latter correlate spatially with the extensive Frobisher Bay Moraine System on land. Two iceberg ploughmark populations are evident, with smaller relict features in shallow water in rare locations in the northwest of the bay, and larger relict and modern ploughmarks in deeper water in outer Frobisher Bay.

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.
