The main aim of this study is to understand the effect of microclimatic factors on the decay of carbonate rocks with different petrography and textural features. A set of different kind of limestones commonly used in Built Heritage of Veneto and Northern Italy was selected. Innovative and non-invasive methods for surface recession measurements in different environmental conditions have been used and results are useful for refine currently available equations. Besides some routine laboratory analysis (OM, SEM-EDS, XRD, XRF, MIP, m-CT, densitometry), two different experimental approaches were designed: i) determination of the recession rate in headstones from a series of Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemeteries ii) accelerated ageing ...
