Encounters or Exposures? A Methodical Approach to Coastal Resiliency. (2016)
Climate change is unequivocal and recently the federal government has developed collaborative initiatives between the Departments of the Interior, Department of Agriculture, Environmental Protection Agency, NOAA, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to identify natural and historic resources that require conservation and restoration to ensure they are more resilient to changing climate. Coastal resiliency, in particular, implies the need to maintain appropriate storm barriers, such as sand...
Gulf of Mexico Shipwreck Corrosion, Hydrocarbon Exposure, Microbiology, and Archaeology (GOM-SCHEMA) Project: Did the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Impact Historic Shipwrecks? (2016)
After the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, a rapid influx of research and damage assessment funds dedicated to studying the spill’s impacts poured into the region; however, only one study is examining the spill’s impacts on historic shipwrecks. The U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and study partners implemented a multidisciplinary approach to examine microbial community biodiversity on deepwater shipwrecks, their role in shipwreck preservation, their response to the...
The Intersection at Biscayne National Park of Looting as a Traditional Form of Recreation, Submerged Cultural Resources, and Management Practice (2015)
Protecting archeological sites from looting is one of the constant challenges facing the 66 park units in the Southeast Region of the U.S. National Park Service. One park in particular--Biscayne National Park--eclipses the others in terms of the quantity and destructiveness of looting it suffers. Research since 2010 at the HMS Fowey, English China, Black, Pillar Dollar, Brick, Long Reef Cannon, and other shipwrecks illustrates the severity of the problem. The submerged nature of the resources is...
Maritime Archaeology in Albania: Connecting the Dots Along an Overlooked Coastline (2015)
While Albania boasts over 400 kilometers of coastline, very little research has been done to learn about the significance of this dynamic coast. Until recently, it has been difficult for outside research to be done in Albania, but that is rapidly changing thanks to government agencies supporting research in many different fields targeted specifically along the coast and in the offshore regions. Because of this renewed energy in bringing attention to the coast, this project has sought to aid in...

Submerged Brunswick Town: Assessing Underwater Cultural Resources at the 18th Century North Carolina Port Town (2022)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The remains of La Fortuna, a Spanish privateer that sank in 1748 off the 18th century port at Brunswick Town, North Carolina, represents just one of the potential submerged cultural resources associated with the famous archaeological site. Due to Brunswick Town/Fort Anderson Historic Site’s proximity along the Cape Fear River to...

This project funded classical archeologists to provide research background material to support soldier training and then to transform this information into useable tools like playing cards.
Underwater Archaeological Investigations of Four Potentially Significant Remote Sensing Targets, Canaveral Harbor Entrance Channel Widener, Brevard County, Florida (1998)
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville District, has proposed to widen the entrance channel to Canaveral Harbor, Brevard County, Florida. Because of the potential for shipwrecks and other submerged cultural resources in the vicinity of Cape Canaveral, the Jacksonville District contracted Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. (TAR) of Washington, North Carolina, to conduct a literature search and remote sensing survey to identify any submerged cultural resources in the vicinity of the...
