SUMMARY:

Geodiversity is a recent concept related to the abiotic elements of nature, linked to the term biodiversity, which is more debated in the academic and social spheres. In this work, the development geodiversity in the apprehension of geomorphological elements, forming the geomorphodiversity which applied to the coastal environment, is characterized with the potential to identify singular forms, acting in geoconservation. In this sense, the present work aims to carry out the inventory, quantification and mapping of geoforms on the coast of Tibau, Grossos and Areia Branca / RN, also seeking a description of the evolution of the natural history of the geoforms in the area. In the present study, possible geomorphosites were identified, through the steps, evidence and quantification. In the field inventory, a survey of general information of the sites was developed, involving geomorphology, dissection features, among others, consolidating a database for the studied area. In the quantification, it was valued like the sites through four value criteria: Aesthetic (VEst), Scientific (VCi), Tourism (VTur) and Use and management (VUG). Consider, in this study, as geomorphosite those that obtained high scores in the Scientific Value (VCi) and/or Aesthetic Value (EST), namely: Apodi Mossoró Estuary, a São Cristóvão Beach and a Ponta do Mel Beach. Due to the results obtained, the inclusion of aesthetic criteria, and not just the scientific one, is relevant for the identification and definition of areas of potential geomorphological interest. We identified that there are areas with high aesthetic value, but with a significant reduction in scientific value, due to the lack of research covering the right areas. Corroborating the view that the aesthetic potential is representative for society and therefore must be included in geoconservation actions
