ABSTRACT Along Florida’s nearly 13,000 km of shoreline, nearly 4000 archaeological sites and over 600 recorded historic cemeteries are at risk from climate change impacts including coastal erosion and a 2-metre rise in sea level. In 2016, the Florida Public Archaeology Network (FPAN) created the Heritage Monitoring Scouts (HMS Florida) programme to engage the public in monitoring sites at risk. The programme grew quickly during the first year of operation to include 233 volunteers who submitted 312 monitoring forms. The programme exists beyond the singular act of a volunteer reporting site conditions; across Florida, varied combinations of local partnerships present unique opportunities for programmes, for example, the pilot program at the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve. Preliminary outcomes from the first year of HMS Florida and the pilot indicate the programme is effective in public engagement and a powerful management tool for tracking change to sites over time.

遗产监视侦察员:吸引公众监视整个佛罗里达州处于危险之中的遗址

摘要在佛罗里达州近13,000公里的海岸线上,近4000个考古遗址和600多个有记录的历史性公墓正受到气候变化影响的风险,包括海岸侵蚀和海平面上升2米。2016年,佛罗里达公共考古网络(FPAN)制定了“遗产监视侦察员”(HMS Florida)计划,以使公众参与有风险的监视站点。该计划在运营的第一年迅速发展,包括233名志愿者,他们提交了312个监控表。该计划的存在超出了志愿者报告现场状况的单一行为。在佛罗里达州,地方合作伙伴的各种组合为项目提供了独特的机会,例如,瓜纳·托洛马托·马坦萨斯国家河口研究保护区的试点项目。
