Any variation in environmental characteristics of geomorphosites would lead to destabilisation of their geotouristic values all around the planet. The Urmia lake, with an area of approximately 5,500 km and a catchment area of 51,876 km, and to which various reasons over time, especially in the last fifty years have seen a sharp decline and have decreased by about 93 % in two recent decades. The...

Coastal areas are exposed to high levels of human occupation, which has led their degradation. dunes have been greatly altered by different historical and current land uses, causing the loss natural cultural values. On coast Tenerife there volcanic organogenic sand active relict with multiple most prominent is tourism (also main cause deterioration). The aim this study demonstrate relevance geo...

Geomorphosites or special geomorphologic sites are new concepts which have entered tourism literature with anemphasis on special sites. Basically, the goal for discussing such concepts is to identify landforms with specialimportance on understanding the geomorphologic structure of a region and their scientific, ecological, cultural,aesthetic, and economical values. Generally, they are used for ...

Abstract. Geoheritage is a component of geodiversity constituted by all the elements recognized society for their particular values. The definition these values, including importance geoheritage biodiversity, plays key role in process heritage recognition and geoconservation policymaking. In mountain environments, dynamic geomorphosites have strong influence on plant diversity because active ge...

Landslides are important components of global geoheritage, but awareness their significance and value in such terms seems scanty the scientific community. normally identified among various features geological geomorphological interest, often considered a source hazard. However, they seldom as geosites part geoheritage. This paper aims at filling these gaps by highlighting importance landslides ...
