The climatic features of central Italy are described to introduce the microclimatic monitoring near the Orvieto Cathedral. The relative humidity is quite high (>90%). The water condensation occurs on stone surfaces in winter or at night; the water absorbed causes the biological decay, and is linked to natural causes (solar radiation, rain, wind, microorganisms); the air pollution is negligible in the dry phase.

Abstract
The climatic features of central Italy are described to introduce the microclimatic monitoring near the Orvieto Cathedral. The relative humidity is quite high (>90%). The water condensation occurs on stone surfaces in winter or at night; the water absorbed causes the biological decay, and is linked to natural causes (solar radiation, rain, wind, microorganisms); the air pollution is negligible in the dry phase.File in questo prodotto:
