Abstract
Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) reduces risk or creates a buffer from the impact of climate change and has positive social and economic benefits on local communities. In this study, EbA was defined through case study, and a list of policies and technologies that can be applied for climate change adaptation policies in Korea was created. Previous studies EbA defined as ‘Using the ecosystem to reduce the impact of climate change, to establish, protect and manage mutually complementary relationships for social and economic sustainability and sustainable ecosystems of local communities’. Based on case study, we proposed EbA measures that can be applied to forest and grassland ecosystems, freshwater and wetland ecosystems, marine and coastal ecosystems, and urban ecosystems and are applicable to local communities and related organizations. The significance of this study is that the concept of EbA can be applied to South Korea and can classify technologies and policies for ecological restoration by ecosystem. In addition, this study provided a framework that can be used to establish site-specific EbAs depending on size.
