OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Modelling past, present and future impacts of climate on heritage deterioration
Weather and climate processes play important roles in driving the deterioration of heritage. There has been increasing interest in how climate change is likely to affect heritage, with the IPCC AR6 Working Group II report stating with high confidence that both tangible and intangible heritage are already being lost due to changes in climate. Conventional climate parameters, such as average annual temperature, do not capture the risk that climate poses to heritage. This talk will firstly explore the concept of refining standard climate parameters for a heritage context so that past, present and future threats to heritage can be assessed. It will also explore how uncertainties in climate models influence our understanding of these heritage parameters, and subsequent decision making processes.
