4VWX Herring Stock Status Update
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Resource Management Branch of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has requested interim advice for 4VWX Atlantic Herring (Clupea harengus) the 2025 fishing year for subcomponents, Southwest Nova Scotia/Bay of Fundy (SWNS/BoF), Coastal Nova Scotia, Offshore Scotian Shelf banks spawning components, and southwest New Brunswick (NB) migrant juveniles. The meeting objectives were: Review of information on the Offshore Scotian Shelf and Coastal Nova Scotia spawning component and Southwest New Brunswick migrant juvenile fishery component. Evaluate indicators and the status of the SWNS/BoF component with respect to the limit reference point. Determine if exceptional circumstances have occurred for the SWNS/BoF component. This Science Response Report is from the regional peer review of June 25, 2025 and July 4, 2025, on the Stock Status Update of Herring in Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO) Fishing Areas 4VWX.
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.
