Bikini Atoll The contrast between the physical environment of the coral-algal reefs and the lagoon at Bikini is obvious in Fig. 9 (von Arx, 1954). These differences in environment are faitlifnlly recorded by the skeletal sediments (Fig. 10). Halimeda-Tich lagoonal sediments from other Pacific atolls have been reported by Chapman (1901, p. 163), Cloud (1952, p. 27), and McKee, Chronic and Leopold (1959, pp. 507-509). Emery (1956, p. 1512) called attention to the small.
