Terrestrial impact structures as geoheritage: an assessment method of their scientific value and its application to Brazil

Abstract: Terrestrial impact structures are geological and geomorphological features with particular importance to understand the history and evolution of the planet. Impact structures are scattered around the world but in many countries these features are under threat, essentially due to anthropic factors. Impact structures with higher scientific value should be considered as geological heritage and, consequently, be subjected to geoconservation strategies. In order to select the most important impact structures to be … Show more

“…Soils, like other elements of geodiversity, have certain specificities that require an adaptation of the criteria that are usually used in the inventory of geological heritage. Other authors have followed this procedure, such as the proposals for inventories of impact craters (Sánchez and Brilha 2017), geomorphological features (Pereira et al 2007), or fossils (Henriques and Pena dos Reis 2015).…”
