한국의 산림전용 및 산림황폐화 방지를 통한 탄소배출감축 프로그램 이행의 기저선 접근법 연구 = A Study of Baseline Approach for Implementing Program of Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation in South Korea

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In recent, the primary concern of the forest policy paradigm, which has been mostly focusing on reducing emissions by the effort of afforestation and reforestation, is moving to the REDD activities that are operated by deforestation and forest degradation. In response, the phased studies is going well to visualize performance outcomes of REDD activities. This study brings up the optimum baseline approach for operating the national REDD program by simulating six different baseline approaches broadly used throughout the worldwide, and classified forestry condition for each province in Korea. From this study, we could aware that the carbon credit of HFLD has a low acquisition, but LFMD and LFHD has a high acquisition. Therefore, there are not many reasons for performing REDD activities due to the lack of economical benefits in compared to the devleopment of producing district in HFLD. All kinds of forestry condition, satisfactory baseline approach are needed to enhance the participation and the actuality about REDD program. When evaluating the participation and actuality, the rational decision should be considered as the most appropriate Corridor Approach. This study suggests that the modified Corridor Approach is required for overcoming the weak points, so that we developed the New Corridor Approach which could be easily adopted to Korea environment.

최근 산림분야를 통해 탄소배출량을 줄이고자하는 노력으로 신규 및 재조림이 주를 이루던 산림정책 패러다임이 산림전용 및 산림황폐화방지를 통한 탄소배출감축(REDD) 활동에 대한 관심으로 집중되고 있다. 이에 따라 REDD 이행 성과 가시화를 위한 단계적 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 한국의 16개 시도단위별 산림환경여건을 분류하고, 국제적으로 주요하게 사용되는 6가지 기저선 접근법을 적용하여 국가단위 REDD 프로그램 운영을 위한 최적 기저선 접근법을 도출하였다. 연구결과 일반적으로 HFLD에 대한 탄소배출권 획득량이 낮았으며, 이에 반해 LFMD, LFHD에 대한 획득량은 높게 나타났다. 이에 따라 HFLD 지역은 산지전용을 통한 개발이 더 많은 경제적 이익을 가져올 수 있기 때문에 REDD 이행 기제에 대한 참여 유인이 부족하게 된다. 모든 유형의 산림여건에서 REDD에 대한 참여를 높이기 위한 유인성과 적은 노력으로 많은 양의 탄소배출권을 획득하는 일이 발생하지 않는 실제성이 모두 적절하게 만족스러운 기저선 접근법이 필요하다. 이러한 실제성과 유인성 평가시 Corridor Approach 접근법 선택이 가장 합리적인 것으로 판단되며, 국내 적용시 발생하는 이익분배에 대한 단점을 보완하기 위해 한국형 Corridor Approach 접근법을 개발하였다.
