The atolls of Tarawa and Kwajalein, located in the Marshall Islands and Kiribati respectively, are characterized by their coral reef structures and low-lying islands, which generally feature shallow lagoons and limited land elevation. In contrast, Guadalcanal, part of the Solomon Islands, is a mountainous and volcanic island with a significantly different topography, featuring rugged terrain and a more diverse ecosystem. While Tarawa and Kwajalein are predominantly coral atolls with small land areas, Guadalcanal has a larger landmass and a more varied environment, including forests and rivers. These geographical differences influence their climates, biodiversity, and human habitation patterns.
The Marine conquest of Tarawa in November 1943, followed by the joint Marine-Army capture of Kwajalein and Eniwetok atolls in the Marshall Islands, had broken the outer ring of Japanese defenses and set the stage for succeeding operations.
