Description:
Palmer et al and Swain et al suggest that our "extra mortality" time series is spurious. In response, we show that including temperature-dependent mortality improves abundance estimates and that warming waters reduce growth rates in Gulf of Maine cod. Far from being spurious, temperature effects on this stock are clear, and continuing to ignore them puts the stock in jeopardy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pershing, Andrew J -- Alexander, Michael A -- Hernandez, Christina M -- Kerr, Lisa A -- Le Bris, Arnault -- Mills, Katherine E -- Nye, Janet A -- Record, Nicholas R -- Scannell, Hillary A -- Scott, James D -- Sherwood, Graham D -- Thomas, Andrew C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2016 Apr 22;352(6284):423. doi: 10.1126/science.aae0463.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Gulf of Maine Research Institute, 350 Commercial Street, Portland, ME 04101, USA. apershing@gmri.org. ; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Earth System Research Laboratory, Boulder, CO 80305, USA. ; Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 86 Water Street, Woods Hole, MA 02543, USA. ; Gulf of Maine Research Institute, 350 Commercial Street, Portland, ME 04101, USA. ; School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY 11794, USA. ; Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, 60 Bigelow Drive, East Boothbay, ME 04544, USA. ; University of Washington School of Oceanography, 1503 Northeast Boat Street, Seattle, WA 98105, USA. ; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Earth System Research Laboratory, Boulder, CO 80305, USA.
