Geodiversity hotspot and SWOT-TOWS-AHP assessment for regional geoconservation strategies in Kulon Progo Regency, Aspiring Jogja Geopark, Indonesia

International Journal of Geoheritage and Parks
The concept of geodiversity and its sensitivity are inextricably linked. A geodiversity hotspot is defined as a geographical area that has a high level of geodiversity, while also being susceptible to threats from human activities.

Reconstructing human‐induced geomorphic changes through historical maps and multitemporal remote sensing data in the Cancano–San Giacomo di Fraele reservoirs (Central Alps, Italy)

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Reconstructing ~200 years of landscape change at the Cancano–San Giacomo hydroelectric system (Central Alps), we integrate historical cartography, archival photographs, multitemporal aerial/satellite imagery and field validation to map pre‐ and post‐impoundment landforms.

Finding the proper methodology for geodiversity assessment : a recent approach in Brazil and Portugal [PDF]

, 2012
A methodology for the quantitative assessment of geodiversity was defined and tested at various scales. It was applied to the Xingu River Basin, Amazon, Brazil (about 510,000 km2), Paraná state, Brazil (about 200,000 km2), and Portugal mainland (about 89,

Global Conservation Status of Key Areas for Climate Diversity

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate diversity significantly influences biodiversity by shaping climatic niches and buffering against climate fluctuations and represents a key indicator of biodiversity conservation values. Protecting climate diversity within protected areas (PAs) enhances the resilience to future climate change of PAs.

Effects of landscape fragmentation on floodplain fishes as revealed by species–habitat networks

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract How species interact with habitat patches is influenced primarily by habitat configuration (e.g., connectivity) and species’ functional traits. As levels of fragmentation increase, identifying the intricate connections between these components is crucial for biodiversity conservation.

Projecting spatiotemporal bioclimatic niche dynamics of endemic Pyrenean plant species under climate change: how much will we lose?

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Species distributions are shifting under global change, with mountain ecosystems among the most vulnerable. In such landscapes, the ability to track changing conditions is limited, threatening narrowly distributed species. As a mountain biodiversity hotspot in southwestern Europe, the Pyrenees harbors many such species, making it a key case study for ...

Subsidies for the Coastal Planning of the Municipality of Jaguaruna, Santa Catarina

Desenvolvimento e Meio Ambiente, 2018
The unplanned occupation of the Coastal Zone has promoted the replacement of the original natural environment by the anthropic environment. This transformation generates conditions that unbalance the Environmental Diversity (abiotic and biotic natures ...

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

Rifting and arc-related early Paleozoic volcanism along the North Gondwana margin: geochemical and geological evidence from Sardinia (Italy) [PDF]

, 2012
Three series of volcanic rocks accumulated during the Cambrian to Silurian in the metasediment-dominated Variscan basement of Sardinia. They provide a record of the changing geodynamic setting of the North Gondwana margin between Upper Cambrian and ...
