MELT and SALT match the two-modality SATCLIP baseline on four downstream tasks but show no consistent gains from extra modalities, indicating the location encoder itself is the bottleneck.
Linear classifier on Clay v1.5 embeddings produces continuous biome probabilities that raise mean per-species AUC for occurrence prediction from 0.570 (discrete labels) to 0.618 on 10,015 Brazilian forest plots.
