Exploring the Impact of Climate Change on Community Sustainability in Atlantic Canada: A Transdisciplinary Approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper examines the significant impacts of climate change on community sustainability in Atlantic Canada, particularly for vulnerable populations. Rising temperatures and sea levels threaten livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecosystems, necessitating a transformative approach to avoid maladaptation. Current strategies primarily rooted in natural sciences and economic models lack the integration of social dimensions essential for effective sustainability assessments. The paper highlights the need for a holistic, transdisciplinary framework that encompasses environmental, economic, and social factors, recognizing diverse interpretations of sustainability across various disciplines. It highlights the importance of engaging local communities and Indigenous knowledge in developing context-specific solutions. Additionally, the paper addresses challenges such as differing epistemological perspectives and stakeholder negotiations, advocating for collaborative frameworks that facilitate meaningful dialogue and action. The paper emphasizes that balancing human well-being and ecological health contributes to a more resilient and equitable response to climate change in Atlantic Canada.

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.
