Major tropical storms are destructive phenomena with large effects on the community dynamics of multiple biomes. On coral reefs, their impacts have been described for decades, leading to the expectation that future storms should have effects similar to those recorded in the past. This expectation relies on the assumption that storm intensities will remain unchanged, and the impacted coral reef communities are similar to those of the recent past; neither assumption is correct. These data support a study quantifying the effects of two category five hurricanes on the reefs of St. John, US Virgin Islands, where 31 y of time-series analyses reveal chronic coral mortality, increasing macroalgal abundance, and five major hurricanes that caused acute coral mortality. Contextualized by these trends, the effects of the most recent storms, Hurricanes Irma and Maria (September 2017), on coral cover were modest. While mean absolute coral cover declined 1\\u20134% depending on site, these effects were not statistically discernable. Following decades of increasing abundance of macroalgae, this functional group responded to the  recent hurricanes with large increases in abundance on both absolute and relative scales. Decades of chronic mortality have changed the coral assemblages of St. John to create degraded communities that are resistant to severe storms.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nSite (unitless)\nYear (unitless)\nSlide (unitless)\nTiming (unitless)\nOrbicella_annularis (percent)\nAgaricia (percent)\nDendrogyra (percent)\nDichocoenia (percent)\nDiploria_labrynthiformes (percent)\nD_strigosa (percent)\nEusmilia_fastigiata (percent)\nFavia_fragum (percent)\n...

Deep-sea larval disperal remains poorly understood due to the limited applicability of nearshore approaches such as larval rearing in-situ. Here, we used laser ablation spectrometry (Jackson School of Geosciences at the University of Texas at Austin) and multivariate statistical analyses (i.e., PERMANOVA and CAP) to quantify larval shell trace elemental fingerprints for deep-sea methane seep mussels Gigantidas childressi and Bathymodiolus heckerae to infer spatiotemporal mixing of larval population pools in the Gulf of Mexico and Western Atlantic Margin. Larvae were collected during R/V Atlantis cruises AT42-24 (Spring 2020) and AT50-04 (Fall 2022), and R/V Thomas G. Thompson  cruise TN-391 (Summer 2021). We analysed variation in fingerprints of 366 larvae among depths (500-3,000m), seven seep sites, and three sampling years (spawning periods). Fingerprints differed significantly among depths across spawning periods, among sites within spawning periods, and among spawning periods themselves. Results may reflect divergence in sources of organic matter during dispersal due to shifts in dispersal trajectories or water mass environmental chemistry over time. Additionally, results indicate that larvae may mix during early dispersal (i.e., during formation of the prodissoconch I shell growth region) and become more isolated by later dispersal (i.e., formation of prodissoconch II). Overall, over timescales of only a few years, deep-sea mussel larval pools may be subtly spatiotemporally isolated, which may limit population resilience to natural and anthropogenic disturbance.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nYearSampled (unitless)\nDate (unitless)\nCruise (unitless)\nVehicle (unitless)\nDive_Number (unitless)\ndepth (m)\nSite (unitless)\nSite_Name (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\n...
