DYNAMICS OF GEODIVERSITY AND ECO-DIVERSITY IN TERRITORIAL SYSTEMS
Journal of Urban and Regional Analysis, 2022 Two concepts, the “territorial system” and the “ecosystem”, describe similar realities from different standpoints. For both systems, one of the key features is diversity, called geodiversity in the first case, and eco- or biodiversity in the second.

Engaging with geodiversity—why it matters [PDF]
Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 2012 The Conference, ‘Engaging with Geodiversity—Why it Matters’, December 2010, addressed the wider relevance of geodiversity in Scotland. A key challenge is to integrate geodiversity within existing policy relating to the way we work and live, and therefore to inform better the decisions we make about a sustainable future for our environment.

Bridging Ecology and Geosciences in Riverscapes: Implications for Process‐Based Restoration
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.In this paper, we synthesize studies that integrally examine geological and ecological processes across different scales and components of riverscapes, including geohydrological processes. Finally, we identify both scientific and practical challenges that must be addressed to bridge the gap between basic‐science implications and their implementation in

Geodiversity Assessment with Crowdsourced Data and Spatial Multicriteria Analysis
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020 This paper presents an approach to geodiversity assessment based on spatial multicriteria analysis. Instead of relying solely on weighted linear combination (WLC) for aggregating factor ratings and weights to compute a synthetic measure of geodiversity ...

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.ABSTRACT Extensive forest exploitation decreases ecosystem integrity and forces species to adapt to changes in their habitats. Following thousands of years of human settlement in the Pare Mountains, less than 3% of the area remains covered with natural forests.

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Species coexistence is based on resource partitioning and modulates biodiversity patterns across climates, latitudes and altitudes. Resource partitioning can occur via niche size or separation in the geographic range or ecological niche. While resource partitioning promotes biodiversity, the impact of different partitioning strategies on ...
