A Proposal of Quantitative Geodiversity Evaluation Model on the Example of Upper Pivka Karst, Slovenia

The article presents a new method for geodiversity evaluation, which was evaluated in the Upper Pivka karst area. The method is based on entire area evaluation on the basis of spatial distribution of geodiversity elements and terrain ruggedness. The method was developed for the purpose of objective...
