Geodiversity inclusiveness in biodiversity assessment

Progress in Physical Geography: Earth and Environment, 2022
Biodiversity assessment is constitutive in establishing conservation priorities and outcomes, and geodiversity complements species richness as a surrogate in the absence of species data, improves statistical modelling and can facilitate prediction of species distribution and abundance.

Geodiversity assessment to regional scale: Ecuador as a case study

Environmental Science and Policy, 2022
La geodiversidad es la variedad de materiales, formas y procesos terrestres que constituyen y dan forma al planeta Tierra. Por lo tanto, la geodiversidad es esencial para desarrollar soluciones basadas en la naturaleza y debe caracterizarse adecuadamente.

Inventory and Quantitative Assessment of Geosites and Geodiversity Sites: a Review [PDF]

Geoheritage, 2015
The inventory and quantitative assessment of the most valuable occurrences of geodiversity are essential steps in any geoconservation strategy and in the establishment of priorities in site management. Despite the existence of many site inventories applied to different scales (countries, municipalities, parks, etc.), the criteria used for their ...

The use of geomorphons in geodiversity assessment

2021
<p>The quantification of geodiversity has become an important task for researchers just after the formulation of the definition. For ‘measuring’ the values of the physical environment, many quantitative assessment models were presented in the past decades. The common characteristic of these methods is that they

Geodiversity assessment of Shkodra Region, Albania

2023
Shkodra Region, with an area of 953.64 km2, is located in north-western part of Albania. It is one of the richest geosite region of Albania, starting from the Lake Shkodra as the largest lake in the Balkan Peninsula, through the Adriatic sea shore, and up to the North Albanian Alps with a height of 2694 m and several glacial morphological features.

Methods for assessing geodiversity

2018
The assessment of geodiversity can be made with qualitative, quantitative and qualitative-quantitative methods. Qualitative methods have a descriptive character and are suitable for nominal and ordinal data. Quantitative methods are based on a set of parameters and indicators to determine a geodiversity index of a certain area. Qualitative-quantitative

Assessing regional geodiversity: the Iberian Peninsula

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2009
AbstractGeodiversity is a landscape characteristic related to the heterogeneity of the physical properties of the earth surface. In this work, we quantify and compare geodiversity in several geodynamic zones of the Iberian Peninsula. For this purpose, we have developed a geographic information system (GIS) procedure to carry out a regional terrain ...

A quantitative assessment of geodiversity in UNESCO Global Geoparks

2021
<p>UNESCO Global Geoparks aim to protect globally significant geoheritage and geodiversity. However, the representativeness of geodiversity in these geoparks has never been quantified in a global context. Here, we quantify geodiversity in 147 UNESCO Global Geoparks and compare the outcome to global, Asian and European geodiversity using a
