  • Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the vulnerability of the human health sector to $PM_{10}$ due to climate change in Incheon over the period of 2005-2014. Methods: Vulnerability to $PM_{10}$ consists of the three categories of climate exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. The indexes for climate exposure and sensitivity indicate positive effects, while adaptive capacity shows a negative effect on vulnerability to $PM_{10}$. The variables in each category were standardized by the rescaling method, and respective relative regional vulnerability was analyzed through the vulnerability index calculation formula of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Results: Regions with a high exposure index were the western and northern urban areas with industrial complexes adjacent to a highway, including Bupyong-gu and Seo-gu. Major factors determining the climate exposure index were the $PM_{10}$ concentration, days of $PM_{10}$ >= $100{\mu}g/m^3$, and $PM_{10}$ emissions. The regions showing a high sensitivity index were urban regions with high populations; these commonly had a high mortality rate for related diseases and vulnerable populations. Conclusions: This study is able to support regionally adjusted adaptation policies and the quantitative background of policy priority since it provides information on the regional health vulnerability to $PM_{10}$ due to climate change in Incheon.

  • This paper approaches the issue of seismic vulnerability assessment strategies for facade walls of traditional masonry buildings through the development of a methodology and its subsequent application to over 600 building facades from the old building stock of the historic city centre of Coimbra. Using the post-earthquake damage assessment of masonry buildings in L'Aquila, Italy, an analytical function was developed and calibrated to estimate the mean damage grade for masonry facade walls. Having defined the vulnerability function for facade walls, damage scenarios were calculated and subsequently used in the development of an emergency planning tool and in the elaboration of an access route proposal for the case study of the historic city centre of Coimbra. Finally, the methodology was pre-validated through the comparison of a set of results obtained from its application and also resourcing to a widely accepted mechanical method on the description of the out-of-plane behaviour of facade walls.

  • Climate change effects are particularly apparent in many cool-season grasslands in South Korea. Moreover, the probability of climate extremes has intensified and is expected to increase further. In this study, we performed climate change vulnerability assessments in cool-season grasslands based on the analytic hierarchy process method to contribute toward effective decision-making to help reduce grassland damage caused by climate change and extreme weather conditions. In the analytic hierarchy process analysis, vulnerability was found to be influenced in the order of climate exposure (0.575), adaptive capacity (0.283), and sensitivity (0.141). The climate exposure rating value was low in Jeju-do Province and high in Daegu (0.36-0.39) and Incheon (0.33-0.5). The adaptive capacity index showed that grassland compatibility (0.616) is more important than other indicators. The adaptation index of Jeollanam-do Province was higher than that of other regions and relatively low in Gangwon-do Province. In terms of sensitivity, grassland area and unused grassland area were found to affect sensitivity the most with index values of 0.487 and 0.513, respectively. The grassland area rating value was low in Jeju-do and Gangwon-do Province, which had large grassland areas. In terms of vulnerability, that of Jeju-do Province was lower and of Gyeongsangbuk-do Province higher than of other regions. These results suggest that integrating the three aspects of vulnerability (climate exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity) may offer comprehensive and spatially explicit adaptation plans to reduce the impacts of climate change on the cool-season grasslands of South Korea.

  • 최근 전 세계적으로 겨울철 자연재해인 대설 재해 위험이 커지고 있다. 대한민국 강설의 특징은 지역별 차이가 있는 것이 특징으로, 대설 피해를 줄이기 위한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있으나, 지역별 특성을 반영하지 못한 연구 결과가 제시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 대한민국의 대설 취약성 평가를 실시하기 위해 PSR 방법과 DPSIR 방법을 사용하였고, 평가 결과 두 가지 평가 방법을 비교하여 신뢰할 수 있는 대설 위험지역을 제시하고자 하였다. PSR 방법은 압력지수, 상태지수, 반응지수로 구분되며, DPSIR 방법은 추진력, 압력, 상태, 영향, 대책 지수로 구분된다. 각 지표에 해당하는 데이터를 수집하고, 엔트로피 가중치 산정방법을 이용하여 가중치를 계산하여 우리나라 전 지역의 대설 취약성 지수를 산출하였다. 최근 2018년부터 2022년까지 대한민국의 대설 피해를 기준으로 PSR과 DPSIR 방법을 이용하여 산출한 지수를 비교한 결과 DPSIR 방법을 이용하여 산출된 취약성 지수가 더 신뢰할 수 있는 결과를 보였다. 본 연구의 결과 대설 피해 발생 시 대설 취약성 지수가 높은 지역을 선제적으로 대비할 수 있고, 효율적인 제설대응체계를 구축할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • This paper presents a framework for analytical seismic vulnerability assessment of substandard reinforced concrete (RC) structures in developing countries. Amodified capacity-demand diagram method is used to predict the response of RC structures with degrading behaviour. A damage index based on period change is used to quantify the evolution of damage. To demonstrate the framework, a class of substandard RC buildings is examined. Abrupt accumulation of damage is observed due to the brittle failure modes and this is reflected in the developed vulnerability curves, which differ substantially from the curves of ductile structures.

  • Community-based disaster preparedness approaches are increasingly important elements of vulnerability reduction and disaster strategies. They are associated with a policy trend that values the knowledge and capacities of local people. In this research, we describe the community diagnosis method and develop Flood Disaster Risk Reduction Index(FDRRI) for assessment of flood vulnerability. FDRRI is composed of four indicators such as Flood Exposure Indicator(FEI), Sensitivity Indicator(SI), Risk Reduction Indicator(RRI), and Community Preparedness Indicator(CPI). We anticipate to present the guideline for selection national preparedness projects and uplift community's preparedness capacity.

  • Recent drought events in the South Korea and the magnitude of drought losses indicate the continuing vulnerability of the agricultural drought. Various studies have been performed on drought hazard assessment at the regional scales, but until recently, drought management has been response oriented with little attention to mitigation and preparedness. A vulnerability assessment is introduced in order to preemptively respond to agricultural drought and to predict the occurrence of drought. This paper presents a method for spatial, Geographic Information Systems-based assessment of agricultural drought vulnerability in South Korea. It was hypothesized that the key 14 items that define agricultural drought vulnerability were meteorological, agricultural reservoir, social, and adaptability factors. Also, this study is to analyze agricultural drought vulnerability by comparing vulnerability assessment according to weighting method. The weight of the evaluation elements is expressed through the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), which includes subjective elements such as surveys, and the Entropy method using attribute information of the evaluation items. The agricultural drought vulnerability map was created through development of a numerical weighting scheme to evaluate the drought potential of the classes within each factor. This vulnerability assessment is calculated the vulnerability index based on the weight, and analyze the vulnerable map from 2015 to 2019. The identification of agricultural drought vulnerability is an essential step in addressing the issue of drought vulnerability in the South Korea and can lead to mitigation-oriented drought management and supports government policymaking.

  • 본 저자는 IPCC 기후변화 취약성 평가 모형에 근거하여 취약성 지표를 선정하고 실증자료를 구축하여 전국 시군구 행정단위 수준의 기후변화 건강 취약성 지표를 개발하였다. 건강 취약성 지표는 선행연구와 달리 매개체 감염병, 홍수, 폭염, 대기오염/알레르기의 네 가지 건강영향별로 취약성을 평가할 수 있도록 개발하였고, 건강영향별 기후변화 취약성은 다양한 요인에 의해 발생함을 고려하여 특정 건강영향의 취약성을 여섯 가지 하부 지표(기상요소, 기후변화 건강영향(질환), 환경요소, 건강위험 취약계층, 사회여건, 보건의료체계)로 분해하여 위험요인별 기후변화 취약성을 살펴볼 수 있도록 하였다. 취약성 지표는 이론적 모형과 국내외 참고문헌을 바탕으로 가급적 우리나라 실정에 맞게 선정하였다. 지표 산출방식은 복합지표산정의 구체적인 방법에 따라 산출하였고, 이를 위하여 자료의 표준화, 가중치 계산, 산출된 지표의 합산방법 등에 신중을 가하였다. 표준화 방법으로는 자료의 극단값을 이용하는 Min-Max법을, 가중치는 위계적 계층분석법(AHP)에 의한 가중치를, 지표 합산방법은 비보상성 다기준 합산방법을 이용하였으며, 가중치 산정에 있어서 위계적 계층분석법외 예산배분법(BA)에 의한 가중치를 사용하여 가중치의 신뢰도를 고려하였다. 개별 지표는 단순 합산할 경우 지표에 따라서는 특정지표의 영향이 다른 지표에 의해 상쇄되어 버릴 수 있는 개연성을 줄이기 위해 지표의 합산과정에서 나타나는 보상성을 보정하였고, 합산방법을 달리하여 분석결과의 민감도를 평가하였다. 개발된 지표 적용결과, 기후변화 건강 취약성이 낮은 지역은 부산광역시가 10개 구로 가장 많았고 경상남도 4개 시군구, 서울, 인천, 전라남도가 각 3곳, 경기도, 충청남도, 울산이 각각 1곳으로 나타났다. 건강영향별 기후변화 취약성 평가결과, 매개체 감염병은 남부지방을 중심으로 특히 전라도, 경상남도, 충청도 해안가를 중심으로 취약했으며, 홍수로 인한 기후변화 취약성은 남해안과 서해안, 강 주변 지역에서, 폭염으로 인한 기후변화 취약성은 대도시나 그 주변 지역에서 높았다. 대기오염/알레르기로 인한 기후변화 취약성은 다른 건강영향과 달리 강원도, 경상북도 이외에 서울, 부산, 대구, 인천, 대전 등의 대도시와 경기도 일부 지역을 포함하여 70여 개의 시군구에서 취약한 것으로 나타났다. 기 개발된 기후변화 건강 취약성 지표는 시도, 지자체가 기후변화 적응대책 세부 시행계획을 수립해야 하는 현시점에서 건강에 대한 기후변화 취약성 정도를 파악하는 데 유용하게 사용될 것이며, 하부지표 또한 취약성의 중요 원인을 파악하는 데 도움이 될 것을 판단된다.

  • 자연재해에 있어서 취약성 분석계획의 우선순위 설정활동을 위한 기초자료로서 재해 위험분석의 주요한 요소이다. 화산폭발은 화산이 인구밀도가 높은 지역에 위치하고 있는 경우 많은 사상자와 재산피해를 야기한다. 화산폭발을 막을 수 없지만, 위험도와 취약성은 미래의 위기를 예측하는 신중한 계획과 준비작업을 통해 저감될 수 있다. 사회적 불평등으로서 사회적 취약성은 다양한 사회 구성원이 재해에 대응 능력에 민감한 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 인도네시아 중부 자바에 위치한 메라피 화산 인근 지역주민들의 사회적 취약성을 평가하기 위하여 사회적 취약성 지수(SoVI) 기법을 활용하였다. SoVI는 사회적 위험부담을 이해하고 정량화하기 위하여 지역사회의 복원탄력성에 영향을 미치는 사회 경제적 및 인구 통계학적 요인을 이용하여 평가된다. 본 연구에서 사회적 취약성은 이해 관계자와 지역주민과의 설문조사를 통해 평가되었다. 연구결과로 도출된 취약성 지수는 사회적 취약성의 분포와 원인에 대한 정보를 반영함을 확인하였다.

  • The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is a widely used drought index to provide good estimations of the intensity, magnitude and spatial extent of droughts. The objective of this study was to analyze the spatial pattern of drought by SPI index. In this paper, the patterns of drought hazard in Iran are evaluated according to the data of 40 weather stations during 1967-2009. The influenced zone of each station was specified by the Thiessen method. It was attempted to make a new model of drought hazard using GIS. Three criteria for drought were studied and considered to define areas of vulnerability. Drought hazard criteria used in the present model included: maximum severity of drought in the period, trend of drought, and the maximum number of sequential arid years. Each of the vulnerability indicators were mapped and these as well as a final hazard map were classified into 5 hazard classes of drought: one, slight, moderate, severe and very severe. The final drought vulnerability map was prepared by overlaying three criteria maps in a GIS, and the final hazard classes were defined on the basis of hazard scores, which were determined according to the means of the main indicators. The final vulnerability map shows that severe hazard areas (43% of the country) which are observed in the west and eastern parts of country are much more widespread than areas under other hazard classes. Overall, approximately half of the country was determined to be under severe and very severe hazard classes for drought.
