Research on underwater archaeological sites has been adversely affected by various socioeconomic (specialized equipment, lack of know-how, legal framework, etc.) and environmental (weather conditions, site formation processes, etc.) challenges. Interdisciplinary approaches, especially technology integration, can help introduce a methodology to evaluate these factors and mitigate limitations to enhance the information retrieved and assist the interpretation process. One such approach may be predictive modelling while developing methodologies based on predictive models can be assets in research. The work presented in this article is based on this approach and assesses the use of predictive models based on six case studies. It is an effort to evaluate whether targeting sub-areas when excavating on limited time and budget can help clarify the interpretation of the information collected from these areas.

水下考古学的预测模型。以丹麦中石器时代沿海聚居地为例

水下考古遗址的研究受到各种社会经济（专业设备、缺乏专业知识、法律框架等）和环境（天气条件、遗址形成过程等）挑战的不利影响。跨学科方法，特别是技术集成，可以帮助引入一种方法来评估这些因素并减轻限制，以增强检索到的信息并协助解释过程。其中一种方法可能是预测建模，而基于预测模型开发方法可以成为研究的资产。本文介绍的工作基于这种方法，并根据六个案例研究评估了预测模型的使用。这是一项评估在有限的时间和预算下进行挖掘时针对子区域是否有助于澄清从这些区域收集的信息的解释的努力。
