Flesh-footed shearwaters (<i>Puffinus carneipes</i>) in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean: summary and synthesis of records from Canada and Alaska
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Flesh-footed Shearwaters (Puffinus carneipes) breed in Australia and New Zealand, but spend the non-breeding season in thenorth Pacific Ocean. They are rare compared with most non-breeding pelagic seabirds that occur in the northeastern Pacific.Recent surveys at breeding colonies have indicated a significant population decline since the 1970s. We compiled records ofFlesh-footed Shearwaters off the Pacific coast of Canada and Alaska from 1937 to 2013. Flesh-footed Shearwaters wererecorded from May to October, with most sightings in August and September. Flocks of more than 20 birds have not beenrecorded since the 1940s, and most sightings have been of single birds, although some key areas (e.g., Goose Island Bank)have not been surveyed in recent years and previous surveys are confounded by fishing activity. Given the significant populationdeclines at breeding colonies, the conservation status of Flesh-footed Shearwaters should be revisited.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
