Abstract
"The U.S. is losing the race against time in one of the least-known corners of the planet. The cumulative effect of climate change is now irreversible, and the amount of ice already lost-40 percent over the past forty years-has changed the Arctic. Melting ice has launched a global competition transforming a newly-accessible Arctic wilderness into an often contested frontier. Thanks to its 1,100 miles of Alaskan Arctic coastline, America is one of only a handful of coastal Arctic nations, along with Russia, Canada, Denmark, Norway, and (just barely) Iceland. American citizens inhabit the Arctic; American corporations transact business there; and American scientists conduct research. So why is America so absent? Diplomat and professor of national security Mary Thompson-Jones argues that America faces stiff competition from two directions-Russia and China. Russia's Arctic dwarfs the U.S. in population, coastline, industry, and military commitment.

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
