Environmental factors. Water, light, temperature, substrate, atmosphere, and climate: their action on biodeteriogens and biodeterioration processes. Substrates. Biodeterioration processes in relation to the substrate: wood, paper, stone materials, glass, metals, photographic materials, composite materials (paintings). Prevention, investigation methodologies, treatments. Environments. Biodeterioration processes in relation to the type of environments: confined environments (e.g. archives, museums, and churches), external environments (urban, rural and coastal), and semi-confined environments. Fountains, rock environments. Palynology, archaeocarpology, aerobiology. Prevention, investigation methodologies, treatments. The landscape. Weed plants. Archaeological areas. Danger index.
