Between 1946

and 1958,

43 nuclear devices were tested

at Eniwetok. This testing program provided an
opportunity for research which eventually led to the
establishment of the Eniwetok Marine Biological
Laboratory in 1954. From 1954 to 1974 research was
broadly aimed at increasing their knowledge of this
diverse coral atoll ecosystem. The second period of
research began with the reorganization of the laboratory
in 1974. The major projects of the 1975-1980 period were

research on the dynamics of ground water resources

of Eniwetok Atoll, and

This chapter focuses upon the people of Enewetak. It
examines their history, the structure of their culture
and society, the ways they have coped with the colonial
powers that governed the islands, and their response to
their resettlement on Ujilang Atoll. Some mention is
necessarily made of the Bikini community because the
histories of the two peoples are intertwined.
