Our team announces the Call for Papers for the special issue entitled “Climate Risk Management for Cultural Heritage: Advanced Methods, Technologies and Adaptive Strategies,” which will be published in the international scientific journal Climate Risk Management by Elsevier.
The journal is among the most internationally recognised in the field of climate risk management and is ranked among high-impact Quality 1 (Q1) scientific journals in its relevant scientific categories. It hosts research that contributes to the development of evidence-based and applicable approaches for addressing the impacts of climate change.
This special issue focuses on advanced methods, innovative technologies, and adaptive strategies for protecting cultural heritage from climate-related and multi-hazard risks. The thematic scope covers diverse environments, including coastal areas, underwater archaeological sites, cultural landscapes, and urban monuments.
The participation of the ICCS research community is particularly significant, as:
-
Dr. Panagiotis Michalis (ICCS) serves as Executive Guest Editor of the special issue.
-
Dr. Angelos Amditis, Research Director at ICCS and Coordinator of the European project THETIDA, also participates in the Guest Editors team.
The editorial team further includes distinguished researchers from leading European universities, including:
-
Prof. Claudio Mazzoli (University of Padova)
-
Prof. Vasileia Karathanasiou (National Technical University of Athens)
-
Assoc. Prof. Deniz Ikiz (TU Eindhoven)
-
Prof. Flavio Martins (University of Algarve)
It is also worth noting that all members of the editorial team participate in the European project THETIDA, coordinated by ICCS, which focuses on developing innovative approaches to protect and enhance the resilience of coastal and underwater cultural heritage against climate change.
📅 Submission opens: 1 April 2026
Our team encourages researchers, collaborators, and project partners to take advantage of this important publication opportunity and contribute to strengthening the scientific knowledge and solutions that will support the protection of cultural heritage against contemporary climate challenges.
