Abstract
⺠Stone exposure trials were used to investigate the role of aspect and wetting in biocolonization. ⺠Darkening and greening of exposed sandstone occurred within a matter of months. ⺠North-facing blocks were consistently and significantly more soiled than south-facing. ⺠Considerable inter-site soiling variation was observed.
