This book presents the preservation principles and the current environmental challenges relating to monitoring heritage sites
and buildings under the effects of climate change. It provides a clear overview of conservation action levels and the importance
of participation and cooperation between them, and discusses evaluation and management methods, thermal comfort for the common
usages, and conceptual methods for enhancing the built heritage. The research presented employed the "Zoom In, Zoom Out" approach
for monitoring the Syrian coastal heritage sites threatened by the direct and indirect effects of climate change. Lastly,
the book establishes the basic principles and conservation strategies for preserving the coastal heritage sites and buildings.
As such, it is a valuable reference resource for researchers, developers, architects, and conservators involved in protecting
the architectural heritage in coastal areas. It can also be used as a guidebook on preserving and monitoring built heritage
sites at both macro and micro levels.
