Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Within the polar desert of Taylor Valley, Antarctica, water is essential to promote the stability of the local ecosystem. Due to the arid conditions, the primary source of water within Taylor Valley is generated from the melting of alpine glaciers. I adapted an energy balance model to predict daily melt-water production. The model uses measured meteorological variables including air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and short-wave radiation to estimate the surface heat balance of the glacier and ablation (sublimation and melting) of its surface. I adapted the model to include an estimation of snowfall from meteorological values of relative humidity, albedo, wind speed, and incoming short-wave radiation. The model was calibrated against a single site on Taylor Glacier and applied to the entire ablation zone of Canada Glacier. Results show that the model predicts total surface ablation over a period of 7 years for Taylor Glacier within 5 % and ice temperatures at 20 cm and 100 cm depth over one

Not 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.
