Understanding Public Preferences for Coastal Adaptation: Lessons from Australia and Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Adaptation to climate change in coastal areas is urgently required to minimise impacts and foster resilient communities, but a significant implementation gap exists. Several factors – including economic, financial, institutional, technological, ecological, or social – contribute to the outcomes of adaptation, and the need to address these varied range of challenges has been widely recognised. But limits to adaptation are endogenous to societies, and effective coastal adaptation, and societal transformation more broadly, are contingent on and underpinned by public sentiment. Research on public support for coastal adaptation is growing, but a more nuanced, multi-dimensional understanding is needed. In response, the purpose of the research was to contribute a more sophisticated understanding of the nature of public preferences for coastal adaptation. Four research questions and associated

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.
