Abnormal climate is a phenomenon in which meteorological factors such as temperature and precipitation are significantly higher or lower than normal, and is defined by the World Meteorological Organization as a 30-year period. However, over the past 30 years, abnormal climate phenomena have occurred more frequently around the world than in the past. In Korea, abnormal climate phenomena such as abnormally high temperatures on the Korean Peninsula, drought, heatwave and heavy rain in summer are occurring in March 2023. Among them, heatwaves are expected to increase in frequency compared to other abnormal climates. This suggests that heatwave should be recognised as a disaster rather than just another extreme weather event. According to several previous studies, greenhouse gases and meteorological factors are expected to affect heatwaves, so this paper uses logistic regression and discriminant analysis on meteorological element data and greenhouse gas data in Gwangju from 2008 to 2022. We analyzed the impact of heatwaves. As a result of the analysis, greenhouse gases were selected as effective variables for heatwaves compared to the past, and among them, chlorofluorocarbons were judged to have a stronger effect on heatwaves than other greenhouse gases. Since greenhouse gases have a significant impact on heatwaves, in order to overcome heatwaves and abnormal climates, greenhouse gases must be minimized to overcome heatwaves and abnormal climates.

South Korean central government has launched the first comprehensive climate change policies in 1999, and they have been renewed every three year. The third policies ended in 2007. However, it is quite rare to analyze whether the climate change policies are effective against climate change. In this context, this paper aims at analyzing the effectiveness of climate change policy which was launched for seven years from 1999 to 2007 in South Korea. The effectiveness analysis of policy can be done in terms of the individual policy and/or all policies being synthesized as a comprehensive unit. Employing the latter methodology, this paper analyzed the effectiveness on the basis of economic growth as independent variable, greenhouse gas emission as dependent variable, and energy use and its process as intervening variable. Seven analytic indicators covering the three variables were selected on the basis of two points in time before and after climate change policy having been launched. The seven indicators were analyzed in terms of three aspects. They were the change in the state of each indicator, the effectiveness of climate change policy from 1999 to 2007, and the effectiveness process from 1999 to 2007. The effectiveness process was analyzed in terms of the relational context and its flow processing path. Economic growth was advanced remarkably with increase in the total consumption of energy. As a result, greenhouse gas emission increased. However, energy efficiency increased with significant decrease in energy intensity, carbon intensity, and energy elasticity. The expansion of new and renewable energy over total energy supply was not effective significantly on the decrease in greenhouse gas emission. The processing path of climate change policy being effective advanced toward increase in energy efficiency through energy intensity rather than toward sustainable development. Such a way of the effectiveness of climate change policy implies that most policies focused on adaptation rather than on mitigation.

The present study attempts to understand the emission pattern of greenhouse gases in people's daily life through the estimation and analysis of the amount and characteristics of the greenhouse gases. Based on the survey of 1,000 people throughout the nation, monthly emission of greenhouse gases per-capita was estimated from their use of fuels, electricity, water, and personal and public transportation means in addition to their waste generation. In the case of personal car drivers, greenhouse gas emission was the greatest from their cars, followed by the emission from electricity, fuels, and public transportation. Emission from water consumption and waste generation was relatively low. Fuel consumption varied depending on the number of household members, their housing type, and the size of their living spaces. Results showed that single-person households emitted the largest amount of per-capita greenhouse gas while greenhouse gas emission from electricity was inversely proportional to the number of persons in a given household.

이 연구는 경안천 토양에서 기후 조건의 차이, 식물의 유무, 질소 농도의 차이에 따른 토양의 생물학적 유기물 분해속도의 변화가 대기 중 온실가스($CH_4$, $CO_2$) 발생에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구 결과, 유기물 분해속도와 $CH_4$, $CO_2$ flux 모두 환경 조건이 동시에 변화하는 경우에 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 유기물 분해 속도는 기후 조건의 차이와 질소농도의 차이, 기후 조건 차이와 식물의 유무가 있는 경우에 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. $CH_4$ flux는 기후 조건 차이와 질소 농도의 차이, 기후 조건 차이와 식물의 유무, 식물의 유무와 질소 농도의 차이가 있는 경우에 영향이 있었으며 $CO_2$ flux는 기후 조건 차이와 식물의 유무, 식물의 유무와 질소 농도의 차이가 있는 경우에 영향이 있음을 통해 기후 조건 차이와 식물의 유무, 질소 농도의 차이가 유기물 분해속도에 영향을 주어 대기 중 온실가스 발생에 영향을 줄 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 기후 조건 차이는 토양의 분해를 증진시켜 대기로 방출되는 온실가스 또한 가중시킬 수 있다고 알려져 있으나, 본 연구를 통해 기후변화가 유기물의 분해와 대기로의 온실가스 방출을 감소시킬 수 있다는 결과를 도출할 수 있었으며 기후 조건 차이 외의 질소가 유입될 경우, 순영향(positive effect)을 주게 됨을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 식물의 영향이 작용할 경우 질소의 유입으로 인한 순영향을 감소시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 이에 따른 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

For a comprehensive understanding of human impact on a change of the global climate, it is necessary to obtain reliable information on man-induced fluxes of greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) guidelines (IPCC 1996, IPCC 2000, IPCC2006) provide the methods and procedures of estimating the national GHG emission inventories. Particularly, IPCC 2006 contains new chapter of key conceptions uncertainties, including the types of uncertainties and assessment methods of uncertainties in GHG emission inventories. In this paper, a compact and clear survey on volume 1 of IPCC 2006, which contains the general information on inventory compilation, uncertainty and guidance on the choice of methods, and QC/QA, is given with emphasis on uncertainty analysis.

Indirect $CO_2$ effect due to non-methane volatile organic compound (NMVOC) emissions from solvent and product use and fugitive NMVOC emissions from fuels in the Republic of Korea and 13 Annex I countries under United Nations Framework on Climate Change were estimated and the proportions of them to total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions ranged from 0.092% to 0.45% in 2006. Indirect greenhouse effect ($CO_2$, $CH_4$, and $O_3$) were estimated at 13 photochemical assessment monitoring sites in the Republic of Korea using concentrations of 8 NMVOCs of which indirect global warming potential (GWP) were available. The contribution of toluene to mixing ratio was highest at 11 sites and however, the contribution of toluene to indirect greenhouse effect was highest at nine sites. In contrast to toluene, the contributions of ethane, butane, and ethylene were enhanced. The indirect greenhouse effects of ethane and propane, of which ozone formation potentials are the lowest and the third lowest respectively among targeted 10 NMVOCs, ranked first and fourth highest respectively. Acetaldehyde has relatively higher maximum incremental reactivity and is classified as probable human carcinogen however, its indirect GWP ranked second lowest.

The United Nations (UN) has tried to make international agreement to restrict artificial greenhouse gas emissions and the UN has concluded the UN Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Kyoto protocol. Moreover, in 2012, the European Union announced that they will enforce the Directive 2008/101/EC. Therefore, after 2012, aircraft carriers that depart or arrive from EU will follow that regulation. For these reasons, Korea should prepare systematic and effective policy to reduce greenhouse gas emission from aviation activities. The purpose of this study is to find out effective measures to reduce greenhouse gas emission from aviation activities through research by countries all over the world. Here are the 4 measures to reduce greenhouse gas emission from Aviation activities that were found through research UK and Japan's policies. First, Korea should implement aggressive incentive policies. Providing proper incentive can attract voluntary participation of aircraft carriers to reduce greenhouse gas emission. Second, the government should adopt environmental tax on use of fossil fuels. Third, Korea should adopt the greenhouse gas Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). Lastly, the Korea government should pull in with the international community to establish world-wide environmental policies.

우리나라의 주요지역에 대하여 일최저기온의 월평균값, 일최고기온의 월평균값, 전천일사량의 월평균값을 사용하여 외기온과 전천일사랑과의 관계를 도시하고, 온실의 형태와 작물의 종류에 따른 한계 최저외기온 및 한계 최고외기온을 산정하여 Climagraph를 작성하였다. 이 그래프를 이용하면 지역별로 냉난방설비를 이용하지 않고 온실재배가 가능한 기간을 결정할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 각종의 온실재배작물을 재배하기에 적절한 지역을 선정하는데 이용될 수 있고, 지역별 기후특성 분석, 지역별 온실특성의 규명, 작물의 생육환경 추정 및 조절, 온실작물생산의 합리적인 계획등을 위한 도구로도 이용될 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구를 수해하면서 climagraph를 작성하는데 필요한 명확한 자료를 구하기가 상당히 어려웠기 때문에 이러한 그래프를 국내의 온실재배에 효율적으로 이용하기 위해서는 많은 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 특히 난방과 냉방기간을 결정함에 있어 경계시기를 결정하는데 필요한 구체적인 자료를 구하기가 어려웠으며, 작물별 생육에 필요한 한계 최저회부일사랑을 결정 하는데 어려움이 있었다.

The major greenhouse gases (GHGs) in agricultural sector are methane ($CH_4$), nitrous oxide ($N_2O$), carbon dioxide ($CO_2$). GHGs emissions are estimated by pertinent source category in a guideline book from Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) such as methane from rice paddy, nitrous oxide from agricultural soil and crop residue burning. The methods for estimation GHGs emissions in agricultural sector are based on 1996 and 2006 IPCC guideline, 2000 and 2003 Good Practice Guidance. In general, GHG emissions were calculated by multiplying the activity data by emission factor. The total GHGs emission is $10,863Gg\;CO_2-eq$. from crop cultivation in agricultural sector in 2013. The emission is divided by the ratio of greenhouse gases that methane and nitrous oxide are 64% and 34%, respectively. Each gas emission according to the source categories is $7,000Gg\;CO_2-eq$. from rice paddy field, $3,897Gg\;CO_2-eq$. from agricultural soil, and $21Gg\;CO_2-eq$. from field burning, respectively. The GHGs emission in agricultural sector had been gradually decreased from 1990 to 2013 because of the reduction of cultivation. In order to compare with indirect emissions from agricultural soil, each emission was calculated using IPCC default factors (D) and country specific emission factors (CS). Nitrous oxide emission by CS applied in indirect emission, as nitrogen leaching and run off, was lower about 50% than that by D.
