Feature Story: International team of researchers in Cypress Hills to examine adaption to climate change
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Researchers with the Vulnerability and Adaptation to Climate Extremes in the Americas (VACEA) project met with local farmers, ranchers and government officials from southwestern Saskatchewan. “This week we were in the Cypress Hills meeting with local farmers, ranchers and government officials to learn how they are adapting to a changing climate and especially extreme weather events such as floods and drought,” says Dr. David Sauchyn, senior research scientist at the U of R’s Prairie Adaptation Research Collaborative (PARC), and co-director of VACEA.
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.
