Mould growth, caused by favourable hygrothermal environment like high relative humidity, proper temperature and other environmental variables, is one of the most severe hazards to soil ruins in high-humidity regions. Nevertheless, the effects of these variables on mould growth under extremely high humidity conditions remain elusive. In our previous research, samples from Wenzhou Qiaolou soil ruin were used to estimate the effects of two factors, ventilation and lighting modes, in unison. Based on that, a subsequent analysis has been conducted to assess mould growth differences with air relative humidity and lighting modes. We found that the extremely stable high-humidity environment (99.9%) had a significantly inhibitory effect on mould growth of damp surface of soil ruins. This paper also gives suggestions on the management of soil ruin exhibition halls in high-humidity regions.
