Abstract

There is a growing interest in establishing a regional climate change adaptation policy as the climate change impact in the region and local scale increases. This study focused on the analysis of 32 regions on its characteristics of local climate change adaptation plans. First, statistic program R was used for conducting cluster analysis based on the frequency and budgets of adaptation plan. Further, we analyzed damage frequency from newspapers regarding climate change impacts in eight categories which were caused by extreme weather events on 2,565 cases for 24 years. Lastly, the characteristics of climate change adaptation plan was compared with damage frequency patterns for evaluating the adequacy of climate change adaptation plan on each cluster. Four different clusters were created by cluster analysis. Most clusters clearly have their own characteristics on certain sectors. There was a high frequency of damage in 'disaster' and 'health' sectors. Climate change adaptation plan and budget also invested a lot on those sectors. However, when comparing the relative rate among regional governments, there was a difference between types of damage and climate change adaptation plan. We assumed that the difference could come from that each region established their adaptation plans based on not only the frequency of damage, but vulnerability assessment, and expert opinions as well. The result of study could contribute to policy making of climate change adaptation plan.

기후변화에 대한 영향 및 위험은 지역적, 국지적 차원에서 더욱 확장되므로 기후변화에 따른 지역적 영향 및 특성을 반영한 기후변화 적응대책 마련의 필요성이 커지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기초지자체 적응대책의 분야별 사업 수 및 예산의 특성을 분석하고 피해사례와 비교 검토하여 기후변화 적응대책의 개선방향을 제시하고자 했다. 기초지자체 적응대책 특성 분석을 위해 군집분석을 통하여 지자체 적응대책의 유형별 특성을 파악 했다. 적응대책의 계획이 실제 기후변화로 인한 피해 내용을 잘 반영하고 있는지 검토하기 위하여 과거 24년 동안 지자체별 관측 영향 결과(신문기사 2,565건)와 비교 분석을 수행했다. 군집분석 수행 결과 군집은 4가지 유형으로 구분되었다. 전국 피해 유형으로 재난재해, 건강 부분에서 공통적으로 피해 빈도가 높은 것으로 분석되었으며, 적응계획 또한 재난재해, 건강, 농업, 물 관리 순서로 높은 비율을 보였다. 하지만 피해 사례 반영의 비중과 단기 및 장기 미래에 대한 고려 수준에 따라서 각 군집별로 피해빈도와 적응계획의 특성에서 차이를 보였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 기초지자체 특성 및 지역별 실질적 피해에 기반 한 적응대책 마련의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라고 판단된다.
