Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

I studied the abundance, diversity and dispersal patterns of managed and wild bee populations in and around commercial highbush blueberry and cranberry fields in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, and assessed their potential as pollinators of these crops by determining which groups of bees had the greatest impact on crop yield. I found greater species diversity than previous studies but bee diversity was not correlated to berry weight. Bumble bees dispersed well within both crops. Other wild bees were well-distributed in blueberry fields but generally remained at cranberry field edges. Wild bee abundance was correlated between fields and surrounding areas, suggesting that wild bees were readily able to cross into fields although bee abundance varied greatly between fields. Blueberry and cranberry weight were related to bumble bee abundance but not to honey or other wild bee abundance. Bumble bees are recommended as potential alternative pollinators of these crops.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
