Abstract

Recently, the importance of recognizing the natural environment and the need for its conservation are increasing due to rapid urbanization. Suncheon Bay, designated as Scenic Site No. 41 and one of the World's Five Greatest Coastal Wetlands, is the only tideland among the tidal flats in Korea, which has salt marsh reserves. It has high conservation value from the ecological aspect. In addition to the Suncheon Bay National Garden, it provides various benefits not only to visitors but to local residents as well in terms of economics, environmental issues, and history and cultural aspects. Two million tourists visit the site annually, which has constantly highlighted the limits of ecological capacity. The valuation of the Suncheon Bay wetland is more important for the sustainability of the Suncheon Bay wetland than for its value as a tourism resource for the activation of the local economy. This study used the Logit model, which is commonly used among probabilistic choice models, to evaluate the economic value of Suncheon Bay wetland with the contingent valuation method(CVM). Applying the conservation value of the Suncheon Bay wetland to the benefit of KRW 8,200 for 1 person and 1 day, the benefit from exploration is KRW 2,050, the management and conservation value is KRW 3,034, and the heritage value is KRW 3,116. The results of this study are that benefit from the annual exploration of Suncheon Bay wetland was KRW 44.3 in billion, the management and conservation value was KRW 6.55 in billion, and the heritage value was KRW 6.73 in billion. When converted to the number of paying visitors per year, the conservation value is about KRW 177.1 billion. This study was conducted to evaluate the use and conservation aspects of the economic value of Suncheon Bay wetland. Based on the latent value of the Suncheon Bay wetland, it provides basic data about the efficient management and policy establishment of Suncheon Bay wetland. The study is significant in that the ecological sustainability of the Suncheon bay wetland and the value of non-marketable were evaluated based on the recognition of 'benefit through exploration', 'management and conservation value' and 'value of heritage'. It can be used as policy decision data on the integrated collection of the admission fee of the Suncheon Bay wetland and Suncheon Bay National Garden.

최근 들어 급속한 도시화로 자연환경에 대한 인식의 중요성과 보존의 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 세계 5대 연안습지이자 명승 41호인 순천만은 우리나라 갯벌 가운데 염습지가 남아있는 유일한 갯벌이며, 생태적 측면에서 높은 보존 가치를 지니고 있다. 또한 순천만국가정원과 더불어 방문객뿐만 아니라 지역주민에게 경제적, 환경적, 역사 문화적 측면에서 다양한 편익을 제공하고 있으나, 연간 2백 만명의 탐방객이 지속적으로 방문하고 있어 생태적 수용력의 한계에 대한 지적이 끊임없이 제기되고 있다. 이러한 순천만습지의 가치평가는 지역경제 활성화를 위한 관광 자원적 측면의 가치보다 보존적 측면의 가치를 측정하는 것이 향후 순천만습지의 지속가능성을 위해 더 중요하다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구는 가상가치평가법(CVM)으로 순천만습지의 경제적 가치를 평가하기 위해 확률선택모형(Probabilistic Choice Model) 중 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 로짓모형(Logit Model)을 이용하였다. 순천만습지의 보존가치의 비중을 1인 1일 편익인 8,200원에 적용하면 탐방을 통한 편익은 2,050원, 관리 및 보존적 가치는 3,034원, 유산적 가치는 3,116원으로 나타났다. 그 결과 순천만습지의 연간 탐방을 통한 편익은 44.3억 원, 관리 및 보존적 가치는 65.5억 원, 유산적 가치는 67.3억 원으로 나타났으며, 연간 유료방문객수로 환산할 경우 보존가치는 약 177.1억 원의 효과를 가지는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구는 순천만습지의 이용과 보존적 측면의 경제적 가치를 평가하여 순천만습지의 잠재적 가치의 근거를 제시하고, 순천만습지의 효율적 관리 및 정책수립의 기초자료를 제공하고자 수행되었다. 본 연구는 '탐방을 통한 편익', '관리 및 보존적 가치', '유산적 가치' 측면의 인식 파악을 바탕으로 순천만습지의 생태적 지속가능성과 비시장재의 가치를 평가했다는 점에서 연구의 의의가 있으며 향후 순천만습지와 순천만국가정원의 입장료 통합징수에 관한 정책결정 자료로 활용될 수 있다.
