Abstract: The author presents a general oceanography of the northern
Marshall Islands and then focuses on the oceanography of Eniwetok
Lagoon. Frequent comparisons are made between Eniwetok and Bikini.
Windward and leeward cross-reef currents,

channel

currents,

and tidal

flow are the major factors influencing the exchange of water between
atoll lagoons and the surrounding ocean. Wind-driven circulation
contributes primarily to internal circulation. Upwelling of the
windward side of lagoons may occur but does not seem to be a
generalized feature of deep lagoon circulation. Deep water flow appears
to orient itself toward the channels of net water output.
