Article Title：Community archaeology and climate change
Abstract：
Archaeological heritage is under threat by climate change all over the world and its resulting impacts are happening so quickly and within so many different physical and socio-cultural contexts, that it is impossible for any single organization or discipline to combat. For this reason, researchers have developed various methods and options in engaging the public's help through community-based and citizen science research, including community archaeology and community heritage projects to better preserve our cultural heritage. This paper presents five diverse case studies from Alaska, Scotland, Florida, Australia and Guadeloupe to highlight how collaboration and community archaeology are building better practices to manage coastal archaeological heritage. The case studies are compared and analysed based on underlying components they all share. In the end the most common factors attributing to a successful community archaeology project will be determined and reviewed.
