Chris,

Your WHERE clause is weeding out the NULL joined entries. Try something
like...

select
 m.repyear as repyear,
count(*) as count
from years y
left join mortality m on y.year=m.repyear
where (
m.region like 'Southwest'
and m.repyear>1985
and m.dthcode!=4
and (m.cause like '%red tide%' or m.remarks like '%red tide%')

group by m.repyear;
    

Thanks for the recommendation; unfortunately, it does not work:

mysql> select
    ->  m.repyear as repyear,
    -> count(*) as count
    -> from years y
    -> left join mortality m on y.year=m.repyear
    -> where (
    -> m.region like 'Southwest'
    -> and m.repyear>1985
    -> and m.dthcode!=4
    -> and (m.cause like '%red tide%' or m.remarks like '%red tide%')
    -> ) OR m.repyear IS NULL
    -> group by m.repyear;
