Total mercury, methylmercury, nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and sulfur concentrations in a degrading lithalsa field near Kangiqsualujjuaq (Nunavik, Canada)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This dataset contains the data used for the scientific article " Methylmercury concentrations in a degrading lithalsa field: effects of thermokarst development and revegetation", submitted to Science of the Total Environment (Cardinal et al., 2025, submitted). Samples were collected in September 2022 from a degrading lithalsa field at the margin of Tasialuk Lake, Kangiqsualujjuaq, Nunavik, Canada. The dataset includes analyses of soil total mercury (THg), methylmercury (MeHg), nitrogen (N), carbon (C), hydrogen (H), sulfur (S), loss on ignition, grain size distribution, and key environmental variables associated with the soil samples. Additionally, surface water samples from thermokarst ponds were analyzed for filtered and unfiltered THg and MeHg. Soil samples were collected at depths of 10, 20 and 30 cm from different geomorphic units, including degrading lithalsas, rim ridges, and thermokarst ponds at various stages of revegetation. Vertical profiles were also collected from a lithalsa (390 cm deep, with permafrost from 115–390 cm), a revegetated thermokarst pond (60 cm deep), and a rim ridge (90 cm deep). Recorded environmental parameters include water table depth, thaw depth, wetness, and organic matter thickness.

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.
