Spatial Ecology of spurdog (Squalus acanthias) in a Scottish loch system.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This is the OBIS extraction of the Ocean Tracking Network and Queens University Belfast (QUB) Spatial Ecology of spurdog (Squalus acanthias) in a Scottish loch system., consisting of the release tagging metadata, i.e. the location and date when the tagged animal was released, and summarized detection events of tagged individuals. If readers are interested in the source dataset they may also inquire with the project PIs as listed here or on the OTN web site (https://members.oceantrack.org/project?ccode=LESPUR). Abstract:Recent anthropogenic pressures including overfishing, climate change and habitat destruction have directly caused the global extinction of several marine species including chondrichthyans (sharks, skates, rays and chimeras). Overall chondrichthyan extinction risk is substantially higher than for most other vertebrates, due to their typical ëK strategistí life history characteristics; slow growth, late age of sexual maturity, low fecundity, long life spans and well-developed offspring making them vulnerable to over exploitation and average global exploitation rates often exceed the rebound rates for many species. In many ecosystems elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) fulfil the role of top level predators, the loss of predators often risks wider ecosystem degradation and can act as a herald for marked changes within ecosystems. Therefore, improved management of elasmobranch populations is needed urgently to ensure the future stability and recovery of marine ecosystems with functional top predators. Despite the wide-ranging behaviour of some elasmobranchs, it has been shown that many species make use of the same areas repeatedly either in the form of site fidelity or residency. The incorporation of such behaviours into the management plans for mobile species may allow for strategies such as Marine Protected Areas to be used. There is evidence that spurdog (Squalus acanthias) displays seasonal residency within a Scottish loch, Loch Etive, a sea loch on the west coast of Scotland, however, the extent to which this occurs between age and sex classes occurs. This was investigated using a static acoustic array and internally implanted acoustic tags on a range of age and sex classes.

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.
