A Research Agenda on Assessing and Remediating Home Dampness and Mold to Reduce Dampness-Related Health Effects
- Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. (LBNL), Berkeley, CA (United States)
This report briefly summarizes, based on recent review articles and selected more recent research reports, current scientific knowledge on two topics: assessing unhealthy levels of indoor D/M in homes and remediating home dampness-related problems to protect health. Based on a comparison of current scientific knowledge to that required to support effective, evidence-based, health-protective policies on home D/M, gaps in knowledge are highlighted, prior questions and research questions specified, and necessary research activities and approaches recommended.
