Synergies between price and life history enhance extinction risk in open‐access fisheries
Abstract There have been few documented extinctions of fished species, but many bioeconomic models predict that open‐access incentives make extinction possible. Open‐access multi‐species fisheries can cause species' extinction if other, faster‐growing species maintain profits at fatal effort levels.

Combining published data gathered from the field and in the laboratory, we examined how temperature impacts North American sturgeon to gauge how these threatened and endangered species will fare in an increasingly warming world. We found that, in response to prolonged warming, North American sturgeon can increase their upper thermal limit more so than ...
