Cayman Compass
Government struggles to maintain early warning systems
A number of sensors that measure sea level, tides, tsunamis, earthquakes and storm surges in the Cayman Islands have been damaged and are no longer transmitting data.
Four sea-level monitoring stations in the Cayman Islands that were installed in 2022 by Oceanwise for the UK Hydrographic Office have stopped working.
The gauges are used to measure and record changes in the sea level, providing important data for understanding and predicting tides, coastal erosion, sea-level rise and other environmental phenomena.
