Abstract: The object of this study is to review what is known of the physical oceanography of the waters of the Great Barrier Reef and Western Coral Sea. Because the two regions are sharply different topographically (the first being a reef-studded strip of shallow coastal water, generally well mixed vertically, while the second is chiefly 1000 to 5000 m deep with marked water structure in the vertical), they can best be treated separately with references to their interactions where appropriate (or, more exactly, where known). In neither case is the available information sufficient for a full description.
