| Scope | The value of wetlands has been evaluated by the Ramsar Convention, Geoparks, Biosphere Reserve, and World Heritage Sites. Their conservation and wise use have been discussed, but many valuable wetlands have disappeared. Some geoscientists have contributed to conservation on wetland, but the amount of discussions is still small compared to ecologists. We would like to evaluate the value of wetlands from the viewpoint of earth science, the current state of wetlands that are being lost, conservation measures, and practical reports on wise use. We will also discuss institutional aspects such as how to effectively utilize various systems such as the Ramsar Convention, Geopark Program, and Natural Parks Act. | |||
