  abstract = {{T}his paper reports on two three-months field experiments carried out in the {O}uano lagoon, {N}ew {C}aledonia. {T}his channel-type lagoon, exposed to meso-tides, south pacific swells and trade winds, has been monitored thanks to a network of currents profilers to understand the dynamics of the lagoon waters. {F}our typical circulation patterns have been identified, covering all together more than 90% of the survey period. {T}hese patterns are mainly driven by the waves and wind features. {I}n particular, obliquely incident waves or strong winds blowing over a sufficient period are able to reverse the typical circulation pattern. {T}he analysis of the vertical structure of the currents through passages shows the regular presence of a nearly linear vertical shear within the water column.},
