Abstract

As climate change issues intensify, the importance of green spaces, a Nature-based Solution (NbS), is being emphasized for urban climate change adaptation. This study analyzes the carbon neutrality effects of the historical landscape forests of Seolleung and Jeongneung, large green spaces in urban areas, using the i-Tree Eco simulation. By doing so, the study underscores the significance of maintenance and management from a climate change adaptation perspective. For the simulation analysis, an inventory was established based on field-measured tree monitoring data of 10,643 trees within the study area, linked with climate data from nearby weather observation stations. The analysis results showed that the trees within the study area annually reduced air pollutants by 5,400 kg, stored 1,260 tons of carbon, and sequestered 98.23 tons of carbon. Additionally, since the study area primarily consists of forest species, it was found that it can secure relatively higher biomass accumulation compared to trees applied to street trees and park green spaces. This emphasizes the need for maintenance and management of historical landscape forests as urban resources that can contribute to national carbon neutrality due to their high forest structure integrity, in addition to their heritage preservation value.

기후변화 문제가 심화되는 가운데, 자연기반해법(Nature based Solution, NbS)인 녹지공간의 중요성이 도심 내 기후변화 대응 측면에서 강조되고 있다. 본 연구는 i-Tree Eco 시뮬레이션을 기반으로 도심 대면적 녹지공간에 해당하는 선릉·정릉의 역사경관림에 대한 탄소중립효과를 분석하여, 기후변화 대응 측면에서 유지·관리의 중요성을 강조하였다. 시뮬레이션 분석을 위해 대상지 내, 10,643주에 대한 현장실측 수목 모니터링 자료를 기반으로 인벤토리를 구축하여, 주변 기상관측소의 기후자료를 연계하였다. 분석 결과, 대상지 내 수목에 의해 연간 대기오염물질 저감량 5,400kg, 탄소 저장량 1,260ton, 탄소격리량 98.23ton이 집계되었다. 또한, 대상지는 주로 산림 수종으로 이루어져 있어, 가로수, 공원녹지 등에 적용되는 수목에 비해 상대적으로 많은 바이오매스 축적량을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 이를 통해, 역사경관림의 유산적 보존가치 외에도 높은 산림구조의 건전성으로 인해 국가 탄소중립에 기여할 수 있는 도시자원으로 유지·관리의 필요성을 강조할 수 있었다.
