In order to better understand the dynamic coastline of Barbados, the CZMU collects data under several field programmes including beach monitoring, wave and tide monitoring, basic meteorology monitoring, inspection of coastal structures and hydrographic surveys. The data and information collected from these programmes is used to guide the designs of coastal protection structures such as groynes, revetments and breakwaters; as well as to determine the likely impacts from coastal development activities.
