Geosciences’ Special Issue titled “Preservation of Cultural Heritage and Resources Threatened by Climate Change” was launched to take stock of the existing but still fragmentary knowledge on this challenge, and to enable the community to respond to the implementation of the Paris agreement. These 10 papers exploit a broad range of data derived from preventive conservation monitoring conducted indoors in museums, churches, historical buildings, or outdoors in archeological sites and city centers. Case studies presented in the papers focus on a well-assorted sample of decay phenomena occurring on heritage materials (e.g., surface recession and biomass accumulation on limestone, depositions of pollutant on marble, salt weathering on inorganic building materials, and weathering processes on mortars in many local- to regional-scale study areas in the Scandinavian Peninsula, the United Kingdom, Belgium, France, Italy, Greece, and Panama). Besides monitoring, the methodological approaches showcased include, but are not limited to, original material characterization, decay product characterization, and climate and numerical modelling on material components for assessing environmental impact and climate change effects.Central Americatypical and extreme weather conditionsindoor air qualityclimate modellingmineralogyadaptationdegradationdecayexposure testsmortarsexperimental researchpreventative conservationheritage materialsmoisture transportdamage functionswoodmedieval buildingsmechanical decaylong-term monitoringclimate changestable isotopesmitigationNorwegian protected buildingspreventive conservationrelative humiditycultural heritagebuilt heritagemitigation actionssalt climatologyconservationoutdoor climatebuilt cultural heritage weatheringindoor climateenvironmental impacthygrothermal simulation modelssurface recessionbiomass accumulationzero statusmasonryScandinavian countries?13Cmeasurementsclimate variationschemical decaywarning reportsalt crystallisationclimate change scenarios?18Omanagementdepositions on marblebiological decayBertolin Chiaraauth1312895BOOK9910367568203321Preservation of Cultural Heritage and Resources Threatened by Climate Change3039426UNINA
