Abstract

The recent rate of climate change rapidly increases. This study aims to analyze the level of priority perception on climate change adaptation fields between public officials and experts for climate change adaptation measures. To this end, the current/future climate impacts and adaptive capacities were evaluated by each sector, and the priority items were selected in each sector. As evaluation results of current/future climate impacts and adaptive capacity by sectors, such as health, agriculture and livestock, forests, and ecosystem, public officials’ perceptions in all detailed items were higher than those of experts’ in statistically significant ranges. As results of selecting priority items for each sector, in health industry, public officials and experts respectively selected the strengthening of climate change-related infectious disease management as the top priority. In agriculture and livestock industry, the development of stable production technology for crops was selected as the priority item to be implemented in response to climate change. In water management industry, securing water supply stability during droughts and disasters was selected as the priority to be implemented. In forestry industry, public officials considered improving the health/resilience of forest ecosystems to adapt to climate change as a priority action item. Experts regarded the establishment of an integrated forest management system to adapt to climate change as the priority item. In ecosystem industry, public officials prioritized climate change indicator species and experts selected monitoring and managing climate change indicator species and ecosystems in sensitive areas as priority items. In disaster industry, the advancement of disaster prevention standards was selected in response to climate change as a priority item. In marine and fishery industry, public officials considered the development of technology for mitigation measures for fishery disasters in response to climate change as a priority item to be implemented. Experts regarded developing new fishery and aquaculture technologies as priority items.
