Abstract Climate change poses an ever-increasing risk to our stone built heritage. Among conservation actions, the use of consolidant products is considered a possible response to this challenge, and the adoption of nanolimes has been widely studied

Abstract The impact of plants growing on buildings remains controversial, especially for vulnerable historic walls and ruins requiring on-going conservation. English ivy (Hedera helix L.) can cause considerable damage where it is able to grow into de

The Golden Gate Highlands National Park (GGHNP) is well known for its impressive sandstone formations. While previous geoscience research in the park has focused on geology, palaeontology, slope forms and the prominent lichen weathering, remarkably l

This chapter considers the various processes of rock weathering, starting with physical weathering processes (frost, wetting and drying, heating and cooling or insolation weathering, and salt weathering (haloclasty)). It then turns to a consideration
The bioprotective properties of the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) on intertidal rocky shore platforms
Biogeomorphological processes are an important component in the geomorphic evolution of rocky coasts. Sessile organisms, including those which form dense biological covers, enhance and/or retard weathering and erosion. The common blue mussel (Mytilus

Water plays a major role in the deterioration of porous building materials such as those widely found in built heritage, influencing many physical, chemical, and biological decay processes. This article details a proof-of-principle study using near-i
