Investigaciones GeográficasGeodiversity is defined by constituents that include geology, geomorphology, soils, surface waters and groundwater. Here, geodiversity indices are calculated in units of 625 km2 on the basis of three subindices, geology (types of rock), geomorphology (types of landforms) and soil types, expressed in raster images with a resolution of 500 m, and a cell ...

Land, 2023 Geodiversity and geosystem services are essential concepts for conservation efforts in mountain regions. Approaches that integrate both natural and human dimensions of mountain abiotic nature are best suited for this purpose; however, geodiversity ...

Lithobiomes Heterogeneity and Geographic Distance Shape the Landscape Genomics Within Brazilian Mountain Systems. [PDF]
Ecol EvolGenomic analyses of Paepalanthus calvus across Brazilian montane ecosystems reveal strong population structure shaped by geographic distance and lithological heterogeneity. Fine‐scale edaphoclimatic factors are the main predictors of genetic divergence among distinct lithobiomes, underscoring the role of substrate‐driven ecological isolation and local ...

MAES implementation in Greece: Geodiversity
Journal of Environmental Management, 2023 The present study aims to support the Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services (MAES) implementation in Greece, by synthesizing an indicator that could be used for abiotic attribute assessments and specifically for geodiversity. Such an indicator can be used not only for reporting obligations under EU initiatives but also for identifying

Quantifying Geodiversity at the Continental Scale: Limitations and Prospects
Resources, 2023 Geodiversity, defined as the natural range of geological, geomorphological, hydrological, and soil features, has been explored in a growing number of studies at different spatial scales.

Quaestiones Geographicae, 2022 The concept of geodiversity is becoming more widely used every year, beyond its contribution to the development of geotourism. It is estimated that geodiversity is as important as biodiversity in the functioning of Earth's natural ecosystems.

Geodiversity Research at the Crossroads: Two Sides of the Same Coin
Spanish Journal of Soil Science, 2022 Geodiversity research is a growing industry. However, in contrast to diversity studies in other branches of natural sciences, geodiversity specialists have only paid attention to one side of the coin.
