“…At present, the research on geoparks is mainly focused on the classification and evaluation of geoheritage resources, geoheritage characteristics and geomorphological formation processes, tourist behavior characteristics and perception, geotourism projects design and geoproducts innovation, local community participation, etc. [ 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 ]. In fact, with the development of geopark construction and the increase in tourism activities, the local ecosystem faces great pressure.…”

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Global Geoparks (UGGp) and geotourism activities not only improve people’s scientific quality by popularizing geoscience knowledge, but also play important roles in protecting precious geoheritages and promoting the development of regional economies. However, tourism activities also have a negative impact on the local ecological environment, placing the regional ecological system under great pressure. Therefore, this paper constructed a tourism ecological security evaluation indicator system suitable for geoparks by using the “Driving-Pressure-State-Impact-Response” (DPSIR) model. The spatial autocorrelation and obstacle degree model are used to analyze the spatio-temporal characteristics and influencing factors of the tourism ecological security index (TESI) of Huanggang Dabieshan UGGp in 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015 and 2018, respectively. The results indicate that the TESI of the study area has gradually improved from 2000 to 2018. Spatially, the level of TESI presents a gradient distribution from the townships where the main scenic spots are located to the surrounding townships. The main obstacle factors affecting TESI include: per capita tourism income, proportion of comprehensive tourism revenue in GDP, per capita net income of rural residents, proportion of tertiary industry in GDP, coverage of nature reserves, planning integrity of geopark, informatization of geopark, growth rate of tourists, comprehensive utilization rate of solid waste, etc. The influencing factors of TESI varied from time to time. Balancing the conflict between local tourism activities and environmental protection, encouraging the participation of local communities, and strengthening science popularization for the local public will effectively improve the tourism ecological security of geoparks.

“…The Koktokay Global Geopark is similar to other UNESCO Global Geoparks [78,79]. These parks are rich in geological resources and can improve the living conditions of local residents and the eco-environment by encouraging local communities to participate in geopark activities, including cultural and recreational activities.…”

The rapid economic growth of geoparks has put pressure on their ecological environments. Therefore, to ensure the sustainable development of geoparks, we must explore the coupling relationship between their socioeconomic benefits (SEBs) and eco-environmental benefits (EEBs). Based on coupling coordination theory and using statistical data from 2005 to 2018, in this study, we aimed to establish an indicator system for evaluating the coupling coordination degree (CCD) between the SEBs and EEBs of the Koktokay Global Geopark in China, which is both theoretically and practically relevant for research on the sustainable development of geoparks. As a result, we found the following: First, the comprehensive development level of the SEBs of the Koktokay Global Geopark showed a fluctuating upward trend during the study period. Second, the comprehensive development level of the EEBs of the geopark remained stable but fluctuated slightly: it declined from 2009 to 2012, affected by the deterioration of the eco-environment, and fell to its lowest point in 2012. By strengthening the protection of the eco-environment of geoparks, the EEBs gradually improved and became stable. Finally, we found that the CCD between the SEBs and EEBs of the Koktokay Global Geopark improved from mildly disordered to basically coordinated, indicating that the CCD is developing toward an increasingly higher level. The purpose of this study was to promote the reasonable development of geotourism while focusing on a sound eco-environment and to provide recommendations for the sustainable development of the Koktokay Global Geopark and a reference for the development of other similar geoparks.

“…Ijen geopark terletak di kabupaten Banyuwangi pada sisi timur dan selatan dan juga kabupaten Bondowoso pada sisi utara dan baratnya. Pada tahun 2020 pemerintah pusat telah secara resmi mengusulkan Kawasan ini menjadi bagian dari UNESCO Global Geopark (UGG) [3]. Terdapat beberapa area khusus yang menjadi fokus pengembangan ekowisata, yakni Geosite, geoforest, dan Culturesite.…”

The tree ferns abundant in the ecotourism area of the geoforest erek-erek biosite is represented as ancient plants. However, species list and their composition as diversity richness data is still lacking the in the conservation area. The aims of of this study was to determine the tree ferns and provide the description of the species. Observations on the morphological characters of plants were carried out directly in the field of tree ferns habitat at the Ijen geopark, Banyuwangi, while other morphological and anatomical determinations were conducted in laboratory. The tree ferns identified in the erek-erek forest were two species i.e., Cyathea contaminans and Cyathea orientalis. The main distinguishing characteristics of these species are: stem height, stem surface, attachment of the remaining petiole, scale color, crozier size, indusium and spore shape. This article also provides descriptions of the species and the information regarding conspicuous characters that can be used for species determination in the field. We also propose further conservation efforts to preserve the tree ferns in their habitat.
