This book reviews the sources of the air pollutants responsible for building damage and the mechanisms involved. Studies investigating the relationships between pollution concentration (dose) and the resulting damage (response) are described and the latest research findings for dose-response functions are presented. Trends in pollutant emissions, ambient concentrations and building damage over time are described and future predictions are presented. Methodologies for assessing the extent of the potential problem in a region – the stock at risk – are presented. Procedures for estimating the economic implications are described and the consequences are discussed in detail, because economic factors are important for reaching policy and management decisions at local, national and international scales. Damage to cultural heritage buildings is an important additional effect which needs to be considered as the standards are revised and the factors which will need to be brought into the assessment are presented.

Deterioration of the cultural heritage as a result of pollution and other similar factor is a serious problem in a number of Eurpopean countries. This publication contains articles on this issue by experts, researchers and those involved in the policy-making side of cultural management. In particular, it highlights the need for long-term research and the importance of raising public awareness of our cultural heritage and its protection. [From CoE website]

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. Incorporates research on the effects of climate change from Climate for Culture, the EU funded, five-year project focusing on climate change’s impact on cultural heritage preservation Covers green lighting technology, like LED and OLED, it’s impacts on indoor microclimates, preservation and color rendering Includes a case study on sea level issues and cultural heritage in Venice

Air pollution damages materials, but it has changed dramatically in the past century, with a reduction in the concentration of corrosive primary pollutants in urban atmospheres. At the same time, architectural styles and types of materials have changed, as we have moved to more organically rich, photochemically active atmospheres. Contemporary air pollutants have the potential to degrade organic coatings and polymers, which are of great importance to modern structures, while increasing amounts of fine diesel soot spoil the simple lines and smooth areas characteristic of many modern buildings. This book examines a range of materials, discussing the ways in which they are likely to be damaged by air pollutants. It should be of interest to scientists and policymakers dealing with the effects of urban air pollution. Contents: Long Term Damage to the Built Environment (P Brimblecombe & D Camuffo)Background Controls on Urban Stone Decay: Lessons from Natural Rock Weathering (B J Smith)Mechanisms of Air Pollution Damage to Stone (C Sabbioni)Mechanisms of Air Pollution Damage to Brick, Concrete and Mortar (T Yates)Salts and Crusts (M Steiger)Organic Pollutants in the Built Environment and Their Effect on the Microorganisms (C Saiz-Jimenez)Air Pollution Damage to Metals (J Tidblad & V Kucera)The Effect of Air Pollution on Glass (J Leissner)The Effects of Ozone on Materials — Experimental Evaluation of the Susceptibility of Polymeric Materials to Ozone (D S Lee et al.)The Soiling of Buildings by Air Pollution (J Watt & R Hamilton)Changes in Soiling Patterns Over Time on the Cathedral of Learning (W Tang et al.)Exposure of Buildings to Pollutants in Urban Areas: A Review of the Contributions from Different Sources (D J Hall et al.)The Whole Building and Patterns of Degradation (R Inkpen) Readership: Air pollution policymakers, environmental scientists, architects and conservators. Keywords:Weathering;Biodeterioration;Soiling;Air Pollution Damage to: Stone, Brick, Salts, Crusts, Metal, Glass, PolymersReviews:“Overall, this volume succeeds well in its aim to examine a range of materials and discuss the ways in which they are likely to be damaged by air pollutants. There is a wealth of useful information, and the wide scope means that it is of broad interest … the book is amazingly good value for a hardback specialized volume.”Environmental Conservation

The volume takes a look at how impacts of climate change on cultural heritage and cultural diversity may challenge sustainable global peace. While the importance of the protection of cultural heritage in armed conflicts becomes recognized, the role of cultural policy as a reconciliatory, proactive element of sustainable peace has been underestimated.
