Why geodiversity matters in valuing nature's stage
Geodiversity—the variability of Earth's surface materials, forms, and physical processes—is
an integral part of nature and crucial for sustaining ecosystems and their services. It provides …

The theory behind, and the challenges of, conserving nature's stage in a time of rapid change
Most conservation planning to date has focused on protecting today's biodiversity with the
assumption that it will be tomorrow's biodiversity. However, modern climate change has …

Understanding the importance of dynamic landscape connectivity
Landscape connectivity is increasingly promoted as a conservation tool to combat the
negative effects of habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate change. Given its importance as a …

Towards connecting biodiversity and geodiversity across scales with satellite remote sensing
Issue Geodiversity (ie, the variation in Earth's abiotic processes and features) has strong
effects on biodiversity patterns. However, major gaps remain in our understanding of how …

New concepts, models, and assessments of climate-wise connectivity
Empirical studies and habitat suitability modeling project significant shifts in species
distributions in response to climate change. Because habitat fragmentation can impede …

Scale‐dependent complementarity of climatic velocity and environmental diversity for identifying priority areas for conservation under climate change
As most regions of the earth transition to altered climatic conditions, new methods are
needed to identify refugia and other areas whose conservation would facilitate persistence …
