Addressing cell size selection in geodiversity quantitative assessment procedures
2023Within geodiversity assessment methods, the grid system is the most used approach to calculate a geodiversity index. Chosen for its simplicity and adjustment aptitude, it implies a fundamental and determinant decision, namely the selection of the cell size.

Two-level assessment of threats to geodiversity and geoheritage
2022<p>Geoconservation is an action of conserving and enhancing geological, geomorphological, hydrological and soil features and processes, sites and specimens. Originally and usually, the geoconservation activities aim at preserving specific sites of Earth-science interest, respectively geoheritage.

Geodiversity Assessment Methods: An Updated Framework
The concept of geodiversity has gained increasing recognition since its introduction in the 1990s. Unfortunately its assessment remains a challenge due to the lack of a well-defined methodological framework. Geodiversity assessment plays a crucial role in understanding and managing abiotic nature, influencing geoconservation, spatial planning, and ...Zbigniew Zwoliński +2 more

Geodiversity assessment in the Ganos (Isıklar) Mount (NW Turkey)
Environmental Earth Sciences, 2017Geodiversity is considered important for protecting, planning, and managing the environment. Recently developed new methods allow us to identify geodiversity in a more concrete way. An increased number of studies have assessed mountainous and especially rural regions in recent years. This study assessed geodiversity of the Ganos (Isiklar) Mount.

Spatial data and GIS for regional geodiversity assessment
2015Spatial analysis and quantitative measurement of environmental variables are at the base of an innovative approach for investigating the mutual relationship between the different components of an ecosystem. Abiotic and biotic elements are strictly correlated but methods and techniques employed for their assessment are not always comparable ...
