Geological Heritage of the Anthropocene Epoch—A Conceptual Viewpoint

Heritage, 2019
The growth of interest in the Anthropocene has coincided with the rise of geoheritage research and these ideas seem to be mutually enriching. However, very few previous investigations were devoted to the Anthropocene geoheritage. The conceptual treatment

GIS As Tool For Geosite Awareness

, 2021
In the last decade there has been a focus on the dissemination of international, national, and municipal data making them available for consultation or for download and future processing by the population in GIS programs. This data is made available through Geoportals, which are portals to Internet-based geospatial resources, allowing users to discover,

Geosite Assessment and Communication: A Review

Resources, 2023
This work is aimed at reviewing the current state of the art in geosite selection, assessment, and communication. We first highlight the main papers that have defined paramount concepts such as geodiversity, geoheritage, and geosites. We then delve into the theoretical principles and guidelines that have been proposed over the last twenty years by ...

Mechanical impacts of climbing on cliff vegetation: Contrasting management concepts

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 153-164, January 2026.
Abstract Climbing a boulder for the first time often means entering a previously inaccessible ecosystem, many of which are inhabited by rare species. Little is known about the impacts of first ascents on cliff vegetation, especially with respect to different rock types.

The New Space Race Era: The Exogeoheritage Challenge and Its Conservation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The escalating pace of space exploration has ushered in a new era reminiscent of the space race of the 1960s. However, the discourse on exogeoconservation—the protection of geological heritage—now demands a prominent place in decision‐making processes.
