Toward Understanding Geodiversity Perception in Grayson County, Virginia through Geodiversity Mapping
Geodiversity describes the abiotic features and processes on Earth. Understanding an area's geodiversity is essential for a complete conservation management plan. To better evaluate geodiversity for conservation purposes, understanding an individual's perception of place and environmental values …

Using a spatial model of geodiversity to guide conservation within mountains at the pan-tropical-scale.
… work suggests that a resource based model of geodiversity may be a useful proxy for biodiversity within tropical mountains and could provide a valuable conservation planning tool. Here, geodiversity is defined as variation in overall resource availability, along with spatial and temporal …

Numerical Modelling of Braiding Processes in Gravel-Bed Rivers
… channels, representing a loss of key habitats, geodiversity and amenity. While in some situations, shifts in channel pattern may be unambiguously linked to abrupt changes in flow or sediment supply, the lack of a theoretical basis underpinning the development and maintenance of braiding makes …

Searching for the ideal river? New directions in geographical geomorphology
… intervention proposes a broad understanding of geodiversity as a fundamental basis for understanding relationships between fluvial geomorphology and ecology. It highlights the role of historically-determined valley setting in the headwaters of the Yellow River as a key cross-scalar control on …
