Methods for Monitoring Heritage at Risk Sites in a Rapidly Changing Environment
Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2023
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Methods for Monitoring Heritage at Risk Sites in a Rapidly Changing Environment," at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Globally, coastal researchers are documenting increasingly severe rates of climate-driven processes that are actively impacting, even erasing, archaeological records. The scope and urgency of this threat requires a collaborative approach that allows archaeologists and other researchers to share methods and resources, as well as draw on local stakeholders and community members to assist. This symposium will feature case studies for monitoring heritage at risk sites around the world, explore the use of various monitoring methods archaeologists and researchers in other fields are using collaboratively, and discuss best practices for monitoring the impacts to cultural resources in a rapidly changing environment.
