Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'Climate change is one of the most critical global challenges of our time which also threatens cultural heritage. As a non-renewable important resource to the European identity, sustainable adaptation strategies are required for long term preservation. For this purpose and for the first time ever, the CLIMATE FOR CULTURE project will couple completely new high resolution (10x10km) climate change evolution scenarios with whole building simulation models to identify the risks for specific regions. The innovation lies in the elaboration of a more reliable damage assessment by connecting the future climate data with whole building simulation models and new damage assessment functions. In situ measurements at UNESCO sites throughout Europe will allow a much more precise and integrated assessment of the real damage impact of climate change on cultural heritage. Appropriate sustainable mitigation/adaptation strategies, also from previous projects, are further developed and applied on the basis of these findings simultaneously. All these results will be incorporated into an assessment of the economic impacts. In order to ensure an efficient use of resources, this project will build on the results of already concluded EU research projects (Noah’s Ark). Techniques from FP5/6 projects will be reassessed for their applicability in future scenarios at different regions in Europe and Mediterranean to fully meet sustainability criteria. The proposed project will thus be able to estimate more systematically the damage potential of climate change on European cultural heritage. The team consists of 27 multidisciplinary partners from all over Europe and Egypt including the world’s leading institutes in climate modelling and whole building simulation. The final achievement of the project will be a macro-economic impact report on cultural heritage in the times of climate change akin to the STERN report which would be a truly European contribution to future IPCC Reports.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
Climate change threatens many aspects of our world, including our cultural heritage. The museums, art and buildings that give Europe its identity must be preserved by mitigating the effects of a changing climate.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Not much is known yet about how climate change will damage Europe's cultural artefacts. As part of the EU-funded ?Climate FOR culture? project, researchers aim to investigate these effects and develop strategies to prevent them.
The focus will be on assessing the risk of damage and the potential economic consequences, and on sustainable preservation practices. A large multidisciplinary team from Egypt and Europe, as well as leading institutes in climate modelling and whole building simulation, are working on the project.
For the first time, researchers will connect high-resolution climate change scenarios with the simulation of entire indoor environments. In this way, the impact of outdoor climate change on historic buildings can be modelled. Work has started on these scenarios, with the identification of important climate factors and the validation of tools.
Some of the experimental monitoring techniques that will be used include laser speckle interferometry and three-dimensional (3D) microscopy. The researchers have also begun to classify buildings in both regions into categories such as churches or museums.
Climate risk maps are being developed to analyse regional climate effects, which include factors like energy use, on the ?performance? of buildings. In addition, new algorithms will optimise the control of relative humidity and temperature indoors.
Ultimately, the managers of these historic buildings will be better equipped to preserve the structures. And the solutions obtained for the buildings in these regions could be applied to those in any other similar climatic zones. The simulations could also be extended to other sectors like agriculture, fisheries, tourism, construction and even insurance.
