Potential distribution of endangered medicinal plant Nardostachys Jatamansi (D.Don) DC. in Shey Phoksundo National Park, Nepal
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Shey Phoksundo National Park (SPNP), Nepal’s largest trans-Himalayan national park, is a vital habitat for many endemic and endangered species, including the medicinal plant Nardostachys jatamansi DC. Despite ongoing conservation efforts, the population of Jatamansi has been declining due to over-exploitation, habitat degradation, and increasing anthropogenic disturbances. To predict the suitable habitat of Jatamansi in SPNP, we applied the Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) modeling approach. The model performed well (AUC = 0.846), with temperature-related variables and elevation emerging as the most influential predictors. Approximately 28,671 hectares of suitable habitat was identified, primarily concentrated in the eastern part of the park, consistent with field observations. These findings provide critical insights into the environmental preferences and spatial distribution of N. jatamansi , offering valuable guidance for targeted conservation, sustainable harvesting, and long-term species management.

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.
