Dispersion was overall higher in samples collected during reef bleaching timepoints. August 2018 and October 2020 samples were grouped as ambient temperature timepoints; March and August 2019 were grouped as “reef bleaching” related timepoints since they fell at the beginning and end of the bleaching event in Moorea. Colonies were grouped according to their health trajectory over the sampling duration (colonies that did not exhibit partial mortality- ‘healthy’ vs. colonies that did- ‘partial mortality’). Colonies with ambiguous health trajectories were excluded.
