Abstract

This study showed the national ecosystem classification for the spatial standards of ecosystems-based approaches to the risk assessments and adaptation plan. The characteristics of climate change risk assessment, implement national adaptation plans, and ecosystem/habitat classification status was evaluated. Focusing on the land cover classification widely utilized as spatial data for the assessments of biodiversity and ecosystem services in the UK and other countries in Europe, the applicability of the national land cover classification for climate change risk assessments was reviewed. Considering the ecosystem classification for climate change risk assessment and establishing adaptation measures, it is difficult to apply rough classification method to the land cover system because of lack of information on habitat trend by categorization. The results indicated that forest ecosystems and agro-ecosystem occupied 62.3% and 25.0% of land cover, respectively, of the entire country. Although the area is small compared with the land area, wetland ecosystem (2.9%), marine ecosystem (0.4%), coastal ecosystem (0.6%), and urban ecosystem (6.1%) can be included in the risk assessments. Therefore, it is necessary to subdivide below the medium classification for the forest and agricultural land, as well as Inland wetland, which has a higher proportion of habitat preference of taxa than land area, marine/coastal habitat, and transition areas such as urban and natural ecosystem.

본 연구는 국내 생태분야 리스크 평가 및 적응대책 수립의 공간적 기준이 될 수 있는 생태계 유형분류방안 검토를 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해, 생태분야 기후변화 리스크 평가와 적응대책의 특징, 국내외 리스크 평가에서 적용하는 생태계/서식지 유형분류 현황 및 관련 데이터를 조사하였다. 영국을 비롯하여 유럽 등지에서 일반적으로 생물종다양성 및 생태계서비스 평가를 위한 공간정보DB로 토지피복분류가 널리 활용되고 있음에 착안하여, 국내 토지피복분류의 적용성을 정량적으로 검토하였다. 그 결과, 기후변화 리스크 평가 및 적응대책 수립을 위한 생태계 유형분류 시 현재 국내 대분류 토지피복 체계만으로는 분류군별 서식 경향성을 거의 알 수 없기에 대분류를 그대로 적용하는 것은 한계가 있을 것으로 생각된다. 우리나라 국토 피복 전반을 차지하는 산림 생태계(62.3%) 및 농경지 생태계(25.0%) 유형의 세분화와 함께, 국토대비 면적은 작지만 다양한 분류군이 서식하는 습지생태계(2.9%), 특수 분류군이 서식하는 연안(0.4%) 및 해양생태계(0.6%), 도시생태계(6.1%)에 대한 분류가 고려되어야 한다. 추후 산림, 농경지 피복분류에 있어 중분류 체계 이하의 세분화가 필요하며, 국토 대비 면적에 비해 분류군의 서식지 선호비율이 높은 내륙습지, 해양/해안 서식지, 도시와 자연생태계의 전이지역 등에 대한 반영 역시 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
