Exploring the changing meanings and future development of public engagement in maritime heritage research Building on the practical case studies presented in Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: The Power of Public Engagement , this second volume delves into evolving definitions and applications of citizen science, offering fresh insights into community engagement, research ethics, and inclusivity. Through new case studies, Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: Terminology, Theory, and Infrastructure demonstrates what citizen science means for communities: it can foster a preservation ethic and enable community members to contribute to research that informs policy change on topics as diverse as climate change and maritime tourism. These chapters also address the theoretical underpinnings and inclusive potential of citizen participation and suggest public-focused research strategies for future projects. Each chapter’s thorough and actionable analysis of actual projects encourages readers to consider shortcomings in the ways citizen science is conducted and to reflect on how the practice can be adapted or updated within the field of maritime archaeology. This volume is a valuable resource for professionals, scholars, students, and volunteers interested in the transformative potential of citizen science. Contributors: Mark Stephens
