Lagoons are lakes formed behind the shores separated by land from coast, and linked to sea through a waterway. The effects of wind, wave, current, sedimentation transportation, and bottom structures can be defined as lagoon dynamics. With the effects of lagoon dynamics, there occurs constant movement of water in and out between lagoons and seas.
