摘要

Ocean sustainability demands interdisciplinary knowledge. While interdisciplinary collaborations involving the natural sciences are common, few have also included the ocean humanities despite the entanglement of human culture and history with the ocean. We—a team of both ocean scientists and humanities researchers—outline a framework for integrating these disciplines. We show how this framework operates in practice by presenting a case study of the shifting baseline syndrome (SBS) in the intertidal of Monterey Bay, California, United States, as represented in historical ecological data and newspapers. We highlight such collaborations’ potential to transform our knowledge of and potential actions in the ocean.
