Geoconservation

2005
The detailed descriptions of the physical geography in the previous chapters show the rich geodiversity of north-western Europe, reflected in its many geological landscapes (landscapes without the biological and cultural ‘furnishing’). The various geological forces, acting in time and space have created the foundation for this richness. The landscape’s

Geomorphological Landscapes and Geoconservation

2016
The intrinsic value of geomorphological landscapes is considered in the context of aesthetics, culture, socio-economics, and ecology as well as geoscience. Geoconservation has become more urgent as geodiversity, biodiversity, and cultural diversity have declined.

Geoconservation of Human Tracks

2014
In the previous chapter we have seen how there is a wide diversity of human tracksites each with a different depositional history and mechanism of track preservation. The challenge for the geoarchaeologist is not only to document such sites but also to advise with respect to their long-term conservation. At many human tracksites this is challenging due
