  abstract = {{B}etween 2019 and 2020, the {G}ambier lagoon was instrumented over a period of 9 months with a large array of autonomous oceanographic instruments measuring temperature, pressure, and current. {T}wo deployments were conducted from {J}une to {O}ctober 2019 ({L}eg1) and from late {O}ctober 2019 to late {F}ebruary 2020 ({L}eg2). {A} total of 16 instrumented locations were spread across the lagoon and on the forereef. {P}hysical parameters were measured to characterize the wave climate, tide and surges, lagoonal circulation, and spatial and vertical temperature variabilities. {T}hose observations were part of the {ANR}-funded {MANA} project (2017-2022) and its derivatives that were aimed at improving knowledge of processes influencing the spat collection of {P}inctada margaritifera oysters that are used for black pearl farming and production. {T}his dataset was a prerequisite for the development of a high-resolution biophysical model on the {G}ambier lagoon that is aimed at understanding the connectivity of oyster larvae ({B}ruyere et al., 2023a). {T}he sampling strategy focused on the northern region of the {G}ambier lagoon and especially on the sub-lagoon of {R}ikitea, which is a prime spat collection site.},
