Paleolandscape Reconstrution of the 9,000 year old Coastline in the Gulf of Mexico with the Peerside Program

Summary

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Approaches to Submerged and Coastal Landscapes", at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

In 2022 the Peerside Program was founded at the Florida Institute of Oceanography. Peerside's mission is to broaden access and ongoing involvement with Earth's ocean environment through an innovative program that increases and sustains social, educational, technical, and professional support and building community for ocean Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). This presentation focuses on the results of our two week cruise working with students collecting geophysical and geotechnical data from the Gulf of Mexico with the focus of recreating the paleolandscape and paleohurricane patterns over 9,000 years ago.
