Ghuts, Grit, and Gills: Aquatic Data Synthesis for Climate Adaptation in the US Virgin Islands The US Virgin Islands are vulnerable to sea level rise, intense storms, and unpredictable rainfall brought by climate change. These changes influence the health of freshwater streams (known as “ghuts”), sedimentation, erosion and water quality (“grit”), as well as aquatic communities and ecosystems (“gills”) that are unique to the islands and important for indigenous peoples’ heritage, local fishermen, tourism, and more. However, the US Virgin Islands have limited water resource data, and the data that exist are scattered across sources, creating an obstacle for adapting water management strategies. Preparing for and responding to climate change requires understanding the threats, priorities, solutions, and funding...
