The effects of land use on fine-scale geodiversity: Ski resorts as an example Open
Human activities pose a threat to geodiversity that is the natural diversity of the Earth's bedrock, soil, geomorphology, and hydrology. However, the impact of land use on fine-scale geodiversity has not been quantified. In this study, we …

Too much diversity—Multiple definitions of geodiversity hinder its potential in biodiversity research Open
Geodiversity—the diversity of abiotic features and processes of the Earth's surface and subsurface—is an increasingly used concept in ecological research. A growing body of scientific literature has provided evidence of positive links betw…

A Gridded Microclimate Dataset from a Sub-Arctic Biodiversity Hotspot in Finland Open
Microclimate measurements are crucial for explaining and predicting functions and patterns in nature, yet the availability of microclimate data often poses a challenge. This study introduces a dataset comprising 63 spatially continuous mic…

Geodiversity data for Europe Open
Geodiversity is an essential part of nature's diversity. However, geodiversity is insufficiently understood in terms of its spatial distribution and its relationship to biodiversity over large spatial extents. Here, we present European geo…

Data for 'Quantitative measurement of geodiversity uniqueness: research implications and conservation applications' Open
Quantitative approaches are needed to complement qualitative explorations to identify sites with unique geodiversity and thereby guide geoconservation and geoheritage programmes. Here, we introduce the concept and associated index of ‘geod…

Assessing the relation between geodiversity and species richness in mountain heaths and tundra landscapes Open
Context Recent studies show that geodiversity—the diversity of Earth's landforms, materials, and processes—has a positive relationship with biodiversity at a landscape scale. However, there is a substantial lack of evidence from finer scal…

Geodiversity uniqueness as a new approach to quantifying geofeature patterns Open
This far, quantitative assessments of geodiversity have typically been conducted on the level of alpha geodiversity (i.e., the variety of geofeatures, such as rock types or landforms, in a location) or gamma geodiversity (i.e., sum of all …

Acknowledging geodiversity in safeguarding biodiversity and human health Open
Our existence on Earth is founded on a vital nature, which supports human physical and mental health. However, nature is often depicted only through biodiversity, whereas geodiversity-the diversity of non-living nature-has so far been negl…

A methodological guide to observe local‐scale geodiversity for biodiversity research and management Open
Current global environmental change calls for comprehensive and complementing approaches for biodiversity conservation. According to recent research, consideration of the diversity of Earth's abiotic features (i.e. geodiversity) could prov…

Trace Element Concentration and Stable Isotope Ratio Analysis in Blueberries and Bilberries: A Tool for Quality and Authenticity Control Open
Vaccinium genus berries—wild bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) and cultivated highbush blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)—are consumed worldwide, and their consumption has a trend of stable increase. Thus, considering their wide use i…

Quantifying geodiversity with alpha, beta and gamma components Open
<div> <p>A variety of ways can be used to measure geodiversity, but no consensus on quantifying it exists to date. Most quantifications have thus far focused on the abiotic diversity of individual sites, which offers only limit…
