Abstract

As of 2019, Korea's fine dust is the most severe among 38 OECD countries, and in the same year, 「the Framework on Disaster and Safety Management」 was revised to define fine dust as a social disaster. Currently, the government is working to achieve its emission reduction goals by preparing a comprehensive fine dust management plan (2022-2023) consisting of a total of five areas, 42 tasks, and 177 detailed tasks. However, it is necessary to come up with measures in consideration of the various spatial characteristics of the city, not just as a source of emission. Therefore, in this study, the shape of the city was classified using the LCZ (Local Climate Zone) classification system into 17 types by building type and land cover type in Busan, and the average annual PM10 and PM2.5 concentration were mapped using the IDW technique. In addition, Fragstats and Moving Window were used to quantify the LCZ classification system. Finally, correlation analysis and regression analysis were conducted to analyze the relationship between the LCZ classification system and PM10 and PM2.5. As a result, it was confirmed that the type of low height of the building and the type of green space with trees had a positive effect on the concentration of PM10 and PM2.5. Therefore, this study is expected to be used as basic data to establish fine dust reduction policies based on efficient spatial planning.

2019년 기준 우리나라는 OECD 38개 국가들 중에서 미세먼지가 가장 심각한 수준이며 같은 해 「재난 및 안전관리 기본법」을 개정하여 미세먼지를 사회재난으로 규정하였다. 현재 정부는 총 5대 분야, 42개 과제, 177개 세부과제로 구성된 미세먼지 관리 종합계획(2022년~2023년)을 마련하여 배출량 저감 목표를 달성하기 위해 노력하고 있다. 하지만 단순히 배출원으로만 저감대책을 세우는 것이 아니라, 도시의 다양한 공간 특성을 고려하여 대책을 마련할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부산광역시를 대상으로 도시의 건축물유형과 토지피복유형별 17개의 형태로 분류된 LCZ(Local Climate Zone)분류체계를 활용하여 도시의 형태를 분류하였고, IDW기법을 활용하여 연평균 PM10, PM2.5 농도를 매핑하였다. 또한, LCZ분류체계를 정량화하기 위해 Fragstats와 Moving window를 활용하였다. 마지막으로 상관분석과 회귀분석을 실시하여 LCZ분류체계와 PM10, PM2.5 간의 관계를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 건축물의 높이가 낮은 유형과 나무가 있는 녹지 유형은 PM10, PM2.5 농도에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구는 효율적인 공간계획에 기반한 미세먼지 저감 정책 수립을 위해 기초 자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
