AERIAL SURVEY RESULTS NOAA TWIN OTTER AIRCRAFT Circle-Back Method Experimental Abundance Survey CRUISE PERIOD AND AREA
Bibliographic record
Abstract
the northern border was in the Bay of Fundy north of St. John, New Brunswick, the western border was the US coast line, and the eastern border was about 64.5°W (west of Halifax, Nova Scotia) (Figure 1). OBJECTIVES The primary objective of this survey is to determine the feasibility of the Circle-back method that estimates abundance of cetaceans and turtles which includes an estimate of g(0), the probability of detecting a group on the track line. First, the practice issues of conducting the survey in the field will be assessed, then the analytical issues will be investigated after the data are collected. The secondary objective is to estimate the abundance of animals using this new method. The third objective is to collect surface water temperature information during the survey to be used in a description of the habitat of the different species of cetaceans and turtles. METHODS Track lines, that were approximately 15 nautical miles apart, were flown 600 feet above the water surface, at about 110 knots, when Beaufort sea state conditions were under four, and when there was at least two miles of visibility.
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.
