Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Duncan Dam Project, British Columbia, falls under the direction of a water use plan. One provision under the current plan is to investigate the effects of facility operations on kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka). With the limited data set available, I developed a closed-loop simulation procedure, which uses a relationship between minimum winter flows and egg-to-fry survival to simulate kokanee population dynamics. This population is then controlled by management decisions (minimum yearly winter flows). The model acts to provide a framework to answer questions regarding flow requirements and the conservation and non-conservation consequences of flow management within a water-controlled system. Future investigations into stock distinction, flow-survival relationships, yearly escapement estimates, and biological characteristics specific to the Lower Duncan River kokanee are required if this model is to be directly applied to the Duncan System.

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.

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.
