The eSCOPES Project: preservation by record and monitoring at-risk coastal archaeological sites on the European Atlantic façade

Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: Coastal landscapes, past and present, are unique spaces subject to intense evolution and change. At present, sea-level rise is one visible effect of climate change, and human activity is also threatening much coastal and island territory on a global scale. In this context, the vulnerability of coastal heritage is increasingly coming into focus, particularly in areas such as the European and American Atlantic façades, where the combined results of sea-level rise, coastal environment dynamics and human activity are significantly altering the coastline.
