log in [COVID Galapagos Megafauna Sizes] - Body size measurements of megafauna species at 6 sites after the 2020 COVID lockdown in the Galapagos Islands from 2020-2021 (Galapagos diver disturbance project) (RAPID: Illuminating the effects of a COVID-19 elimination of diver disturbance on reef fish behavior, distribution and ecosystem functioning in the Galapagos Marine Reserve) The effect of changing levels of scuba diver disturbance, from a low during the 2020 COVID 19 lockdown to normal levels nearly a year later (July - August 2021) on the body sizes of  6 species of marine megafauna (sharks, sea lions and rays) was sampled to test the hypothesis the megafauna community would differ between the lockdown and post-lock down period 1 year later.  These data are from the period after the COVID 19 lockdown in July-August 2021. \n\nThe presence and size of the megafauna was recorded by extended duration video cameras that recorded from a fixed position at 12-15 m depth at each of the 6 sites. These were GoPro7 cameras in an aluminum housing with a battery pack to enable 6-8 hrs of continuous video recording. All megafauna species seen within 5 meters distance from the camera were identified to species. Total body lengths of megafauna were estimated within 5 cm increments by comparing them to known size indicators in the videos.  \n\nThese data were collected by Drs Robert Lamb, Jon Witman and Franz Smith. Rebecca Ward-Diorio worked up the data from the GoPro files.  The GoPro file names are provided for reference.

A promising approach for studying eco-evolutionary dynamics is to explore whether variation acting over rapid timescales can impose selection on existing within population-variation in functional traits. The Bodega Marine Reserve population of the Channeled Dogwhelk, Nucella canaliculata, contains a mix of drilling phenotypes. A selection experiment was performed to determine the effects of four early-life diet treatments (thin-shelled Mytilus trossulus mussels, two treatments of M. californianus from two populations known to differ in shell thickness, and acorn barnacles) on N. canaliculata phenotype.

We studied the effects of intra-population variation in predation in a marine dogwhelk (Nucella canaliculata) on mussel bed succession. We outplanted dogwhelks that were reared on four early-life diet treatments and showed evidence of differential mortality and variation in drilling capacity in the lab to experimental field cages and followed the trajectory of succession over the course of a year.

log in [Little Cayman Vertical Temp Data] -  (NSF-BSF: Assessing the mechanisms of molecular and morphological adaptation by corals to extreme environments) Coral reefs are increasingly threatened by marine heatwaves, which drive widespread coral bleaching and mortality. Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) have been proposed as potential thermal refuges due to their greater depth and relative isolation from surface temperature extremes. Yet their resilience to extreme heat events remains uncertain, with location specific conclusions, thus requiring further studies. Here, we investigate the effects of the 2023 marine heatwave in the Cayman Islands, which resulted in prolonged sea surface temperatures exceeding 31°C and 17.5 DHW with extensive bleaching across shallow coral reefs. \n\nUtilizing vertical transect surveys from 10m to 50m, we assessed depth-related variations in bleaching prevalence and temperature profiles. Our results indicate a significant decline in bleaching with increasing depth, with a concurrent reduction in temperature. Depth-generalist species exhibited reduced bleaching at greater depths, whereas shallow-water specialists displayed severe bleaching. These findings suggest that while MCEs may provide thermal refuge for some species, their capacity to buffer against climate-driven reef degradation is species-specific. Given the increasing frequency and intensity of marine heatwaves, understanding the role of deeper reef habitats in mitigating coral loss is critical for informing conservation and management strategies. \n\nOur study underscores the importance of protecting MCEs as potential thermal refuges while emphasizing the need for continued research on species-specific thermal resilience with depth. Within this dataset, we present the temperature data measured during each survey across depth.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nsite (unitless)\ndepth_f (Depth_ft, feet (ft))\ndepth (Depth_m, m)\nTemp (degrees Celsius (C))\nlatitude (Site_latitude, degrees_north)\nlongitude (Site_longitude, degrees_east)\n BCO-DMO bcodmo_dataset_964602_v1

When N. canaliculata hatch, they are dependent on a supply of newly recruited prey that are variable in abundance. To determine the strength of selection that early-life diet may impose on juvenile dogwhelks, recruit mussel shell thickness was quantified for two mussel species, Mytilus trossulus and Mytilus californianus.
