Abstract
Cisco (Coregonus artedi) were historically abundant throughout Lake Huron, including Saginaw Bay, but only a few remnant populations remain in northern Lake Huron today. Reestablishment of cisco is an important component of management plans to restore sustainable fisheries in Lake Huron. Cisco restoration efforts have focused on the release of hatchery-reared fish, but the fate and behavior of stocked fish after release is unknown. Mortality due to predation and behavior of hatchery-reared fish after release may influence success of restoration stocking programs. Acoustic telemetry tags with predation sensors show promise for tracking movements and survival of juvenile fish; however, guidelines for designing receiver arrays to capture movements and determine the fate of juvenile fish are not well-established. We examined whether an acoustic receiver array with approximately 20 km2 of coverage was sufficient to determine movements and fate of cisco during the first month after release. We implanted 26 juvenile cisco (mean total length = 161 mm) with acoustic tags equipped with a sensor to detect predation. Thirteen fish (50%) moved more than 4 km from the release location and out of the array, seven fish (27%) were consumed by predators while in the array within 17 days of release, and the fates of six fish (23%) were unknown. Of fish that left the array, 50% left between 4 and 7 days after release. No fish were detected after 17 days after release. Cisco moved with water currents during the first day after release, but this was not observed in subsequent days. Concurrent with fish release, detection range was estimated from stationary tags at three locations within the receiver array. Daily estimates of detection range were greater than 50% at 250 m during October 2021. This study provides evidence that hatchery-reared juvenile cisco can move more than 4 km within 17 days of release but are vulnerable to predation. To fully quantify sources of mortality and spatial extent of movements by hatchery-reared cisco, future acoustic telemetry studies will require a receiver array designed to track movements of tagged fish and their predators over larger distances than monitored in this study.

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 it
