Over the last several decades, evidence of people's influences on climate change has become increasingly clear and compelling.
MORE INFORMATION
In order to identify the most substantial risks, the Climate for Culture project has taken the innovative approach of
correlating high resolution climate change scenarios with building simulation models.
The Project
In the face of global climate change, the project
CLIMATE FOR CULTURE is investigating the
potential impact of climate change on Europe’s
cultural heritage assets – particularly on historic
buildings and their interiors. MORE

Database Climate for Culture at Eindhoven University of Technology
In the context of CLIMATE FOR CULTURE the project partner TU Eindhoven (TUe) has created a database on its Physics of Monuments website which allows other partners to upload project related climate and measurement data. As graphical output it can be easily stored and quickly assessed. In the long run, all information on the case studies shall be available in this database.
Software for digitizing analogue data charts from thermohygrographs
A software named DigitChart has been developed by project partner Jan Radon, Engineering Consulting & Software Development, Poland.
New results from the CLIMATE FOR CULTURE project
A first set of climate indicators with a temporal resolution of 1h could already be produced for the ICPP A1B emission scenario, allowing to make initial statements on changing indoor conditions of historic buildings with building simulation programmes.
