The derivation of the term Geoheritage is from ''geological heritage'' which in turn is derived from ''heritage''. Whilst the term geological heritage was first mentioned at the First International Symposium on the Conservation of our Geological Heritage at Digne, France in 1991,〔Anon 1991 First International Symposium on the Conservation of our Geological Heritage, Digne, France, 11–16 June 1991: Terra Abstracts Supplement 2 to Terra Nova Volume 3, 1991, 17〕 the first reference to geoheritage was at the Malvern International Conference in 1993 (Joyce 1994b;〔Joyce E B 1994a Geological Heritage Committee. In: B J Cooper & D F Branagan (eds), Rock me hard. Rock me soft. a history of the Geological Society of Australia Inc. Published by Geological Society of Australia Inc., Sydney, NSW, 30-36〕 O'Halloran et al. 1994〔O'Halloran D, Green C, Harley, M Stanley M, & Knil J (eds) 1994 Geological and Landscape Conservation. Proceedings of the Malvern International Conference 1993. Geological Society, London, UK〕). The matter is further discussed in 2002 by Sharples.〔Sharples C 2002 Concepts and principles of geoconservation. Tasmanian Parks & Wildlife Service, Hobart〕 Conceptually, geoheritage derives from various writings of Busby et al. 2001〔Busby III A B, Conrads R, Willis P & Roots D 2001 An Australian Geographic Guide to Fossils & Rocks: Australian Geographic NSW〕 and Hallam 1989〔Hallam, Anthony 1989 ''Great Geological Controversies'' (2nd Ed). Oxford University Press, Oxford, UK〕). In Australia, the term geoheritage appeared initially in Bradbury 1993,〔Bradbury J 1993 A Preliminary Geoheritage Inventory of the Eastern Tasmania Terrane. A Report to Parks and Wildlife Service, Tasmania.〕 Sharples 1993〔Sharples C 1993 A Methodology for the identification of significant landforms and geological sites for geoconservation purposes.

Department of Environment, and Conservation Commission of Western Australia. Perth, WA〕 In Sharples 1995〔Sharples C 1995 Geoconservation in forest management - principles and procedures. Tasforests 7: 37-50〕 the original concept of geoheritage was further developed to include the protection of dynamic geological processes and geodiversity. ==Definition== The best definition was derived from Semeniuk (1997) and Semeniuk & Semeniuk (2001), by M Brocx & V Semeniuk in 2007:〔Geoheritage and geoconservation - history, definition, scope and scale, M Brocx & V Semeniuk, Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 90: 53-87, 2007Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 90: 53-87, 2007〕 "Globally, nationally, state-wide, to local features of geology, such as its igneous, metamorphic, sedimentary, stratigraphic, structural, geochemical, mineralogic, palaeontologic, geomorphic, pedologic, and hydrologic attributes, at all scales, that are intrinsically important sites, or culturally important sites, that offer information or insights into the formation or evolution of the Earth, or into the history of science, or that can be used for research, teaching, or reference." They can learn in ways we can't imagine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Geoheritage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
