<p><strong>Description: </strong></p>
<p>A microclimate is the environment immediately surrounding
an artifact. Microclimates designed for optimum storage,
display, or treatment conditions can be created and
maintained in showcases, storage cabinets, rooms, or plastic
bags. This course covers the basics of creating and
maintaining microclimates, including discussions of suitable
enclosures and appropriate means of controlling humidity,
temperature, pollution, and oxygen. Learn what constitutes a
microclimate, how to use silica gel and other environmental
control materials, how to reduce internally generated
pollutants, and techniques for monitoring the microclimate
you have created.</p>
<p><strong>Course Outline: </strong></p>
<p>1. Introduction to Microclimates and History of
Microclimates</p>
<p>2. Components of a Microclimate</p>
<p>3. Microclimate Enclosures</p>
<p>4. Passive Environmental Controls</p>
<p>5. Active Environmental Controls, Pollution, Case Leakage</p>
<p>6. Monitoring a Microclimate<br>

style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: arial, helvetica;
font-size: medium;"> has been providing consultant
services for environmental control of museum display and
storage applications for almost twenty years. Mr. Shiner
has extensive expertise in both active and passive methods
of mitigating and controlling humidity, temperature,
pollution, and oxygen levels for display and storage
enclosures. His experience includes working with
architects, engineers, and conservators to design both
local and central systems for large museums. As founder of
Keepsafe Microclimate Systems he has provided hundreds of
active and passive solutions for low oxygen treatment and
storage (anoxia), and showcase humidity and temperature
control. Mr. Shiner is author of numerous articles on
microclimate storage and display. His clients include
museums in the US and Europe. When not working on
microclimates, Mr. Shiner can bang out a passable version
of "Lady of Spain" on the accordion. <br>
