Geoheritage: Assessment, Protection, and Management covers the breadth of geoheritage including geodiversity, geoconservation, geotourism and geoparks; it also explores the relationship of geoheritage to landscapes, conservation, and tourism. The book includes methodologies for assessment, mapping, and visualization; along with 12 geographically varied case studies, and ~200 figures and maps of some of the most important global geosites. This second edition significantly expands the previous coverage and adds new chapters on relationships of geoheritage and geodiversity with biodiversity, climate change, natural hazards, ecosystem services, education and urbanization. Geoheritage Second Edition is an essential resource for geoscientists and students working in the fields of geoheritage, geosites, geomorphosites, geoconservation, and geotourism.
