DocumentReview of methodology on climate change impact and vulnerability assessment for application to the forest sector in Republic of Korea: The first step for mainstreaming adaptation in forest sector
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022

No results found.As the two laws, The Framework Act on Agriculture and Fisheries, Rural Community and Food Industry and The Creation and Management of Forest Resources Act, were revised in 2015 and 2019, respectively, the Korean government made it mandatory for Korea Forest Service to report the results of climate change impact and vulnerability assessment on forest sector. For implementing the above duty, the National Institute of Forest Science (NIFoS) has categorized the forest sector to eighteen detailed sectors and established monitoring framework to assess the climate change impacts since 2015.
This study aims to develop appropriate methodology and framework for assessment of climate change impact and vulnerability on forest sector in Korea by reviewing what the NIFoS has conducted in comparison with the previous cases in the USA, Canada and the UK. To achieve this, this study first clarifies the ultimate goals of assessment and categorizes assessment areas for each detailed sector. Then, by reviewing the major factors on vulnerability assessment used in the Adaptation Partners Frameworks (USA), the Climate Change Response Framework (USA), the Canadian Council of Forest Ministers Framework (Canada), and the Climate Change Risk Assessment (UK), this study draws the possible stepwise check list with the hope of producing appropriate results on climate change impact and vulnerability which can be utilized in the stage of mainstreaming adaptation in forest sector. The tentative framework drawn from this study contains the considerations about where we need to go and how to go for achieving adaptation.
This study is expected to contribute to establish the essential basis for supporting decision making for finding actual tools to conserve and enhance forest ecosystem services and sustain life of human being under climate change pressure.
