Abstract

It is not clear how to apply the climate scenario to assess the impact of climate change in the agricultural sector. Even if you apply the same scenario, the result can vary depending on the temporal-spatial downscaling, the post-treatment to adjust the bias of a model, and the prediction model selection (used for an impact assessment). The end user, who uses the scenario climate data, should select climate factors, a spatial extend, and a temporal range appropriate for the objectives of an analysis. It is important to draw the impact assessment results with minimum uncertainty by evaluating the suitability of the data including the reproducibility of the past climate and calculating the optimum future climate change scenario. This study introduced data processing methods for reducing the uncertainties in the process of applying the future climate change scenario to users in the agricultural sector and tried to provide basic information for appropriately using the scenario data in accordance with the study objectives.

농업부문의 기후변화 적응은 농작물의 생육과 수량에 미치는 기후변화 영향의 정량평가로부터 시작된다. 이를 위한 조건으로서 작물모형 외에 과거-미래 간 이음새 없는 기후자료가 필요하지만, 기후시나리오에서 산출된 과거 기간의 자료는 실측 기후와 차이가 난다. 이것을 보정 없이 작물모형 구동에 사용한다면 농작물의 생육과 수량예측이 현실과 동떨어진 것이 되어 모의결과를 바탕으로 마련된 적응대책은 실효성이 낮아진다. 또한 동일한 기후시나리오를 사용자에 따라 서로 다른 시공간적 상세화 작업이나 기후모델의 편의보정을 위한 후처리 작업을 수행한다면 작물모형 구동결과는 달라질 수 있다. 농업부문에서 불확실성을 최소화한 영향평가결과를 도출하기 위해서는 먼저 최종 사용자의 목적에 적합한 공간적 및 시간적 규모를 설정하는 일이다. 나아가 과거기후의 재현성을 포함한 시나리오기후의 불확실성을 정확히 파악하여 영향평가결과의 불확실성을 정량적으로 제시할 수 있어야 한다. 이 논문에서는 기후시나리오의 농업분야 활용과정에서 발생할 수 있는 불확실성을 요인별로 추적하고, 이를 줄이기 위한 자료처리기법을 소개하며, 연구목적에 따른 최적 시나리오 자료를 추천함으로써 기후변화 적응을 위한 기초정보를 제공하고자 하였다.
