Microclimate for Cultural Heritage: Measurement, Risk Assessment, Conservation, Restoration, and Maintenance of Indoor and Outdoor Monuments, Third Edition, presents the latest on microclimates, environmental issues and the conservation of cultural heritage. It is a useful treatise on microphysics, acting as a practical handbook for conservators and specialists in physics, chemistry, architecture, engineering, geology and biology who focus on environmental issues and the conservation of works of art. It fills a gap between the application of atmospheric sciences, like the thermodynamic processes of clouds and dynamics of planetary boundary layer, and their application to a monument surface or a room within a museum.

Sections covers applied theory, environmental issues and conservation, practical utilization, along with suggestions, examples, common issues and errors.

  • Connects theory to practice with clear illustrations, useful examples, and case studies
  • Covers practical issues, e.g. rising damp, moulds, and pests, indoor heating, thermal comfort, green lighting technology, performing field surveys
  • Presents the latest standards for measuring cultural assets and their environment
  • Discusses climate change and indoor - outdoor potential scenarios, including sea-level rise
