Application of cost-benefit analysis for establishing coastal erosion setback buffer zones in South Korea
Setting up buffer zones to avoid coastal erosion is a method used worldwide, but not been widely adopted in South Korea. The economic feasibility of buffer zones raises questions. Using spatial cost-benefit analysis (CBA), this study compared setback acquisition costs with previously invested costs in hard protection and nourishment at two contrasting beaches: Gungchon-Munam Beach (in a rural area) and Haeundae Beach (in a highly developed urban …
The impact of community resilience on subjective well-being––A multi-level structural equation model analysis in Busan, South Korea
Increasingly frequent climate-induced disasters have raised urgent concerns regarding their impact on urban residents'’ quality of life. However, a significant empirical gap remains in understanding how macro-level objective community resilience interacts with micro-level psychological factors to shape individual well-being. Accordingly, this study examines the following research question: To what extent does community-level disaster resilience c…
Effect of greening vacant houses on improvement in thermal environment using Envi-met simulation: A case study on Busan metropolitan city
This study aimed to analyze the improvement in outdoor thermal environment by greening of persistently vacant housing and open areas in a densely built old downtown area of Busan Metropolitan City using ENVI-met. Simulation was performed for a summer day by constructing four scenarios for four areas considering the building density and slope direction. The results indicate that compared to the current scenario, the concrete scenario had the worst…

Smart Engagement and Smart Urbanism: Integrating “The Smart” Into Participatory Planning and Community Engagement
The smart city epitomizes a new paradigm shift in urban planning, policy, and cities. Smart cities require and are powered by smart city principles to succeed, including smart technologies, smart infrastructure, and smart governance; however, they also need to engage closely with the citizens who are most affected by the deployment of the smart city and who also embrace the diverse perspectives, experiences, and opportunities of living in smart c…
Gap Analysis Between the Level of Heat Wave Adaptation Policy and Heat Wave Effects in South Korean Municipalities
This study aims to analyze the gap between the level of heat wave adaptation policies and heat wave effects in South Korean municipalities. First, the types of industries in municipalities were classified using factor analysis and cluster analysis. Second, the level of heat wave adaptation policy in the municipalities was assessed using a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process analysis. Third, the gap between the level of heat wave adaptation policy an…
Spatial Disparity of Visitors Changes during Particulate Matter Warning Using Big Data Focused on Seoul, Korea
This study examined the changes in the number of visitors to regions during periods of high particulate matter (PM) concentrations in Seoul and analyzed the regional differences of these changes. Further, it examined the spatial characteristics that affect these regional differences. This study mapped the regional differences by conducting a spatial cluster analysis using GIS and examined factors affecting the regional differences using logistic …
Impact of particulate matter and urban spatial characteristics on urban vitality using spatiotemporal big data
Multi-risk assessment of heat waves under intensifying climate change using Bayesian Networks
Assessment of Relative Asthma Risk in Populations Living near Incineration Facilities in Seoul, Korea
While incineration is among the most commonly used technologies for waste disposal, there is ongoing public concern regarding the adverse health impact. The aim of this study is thus to use health statistics to assess the relative risk of asthma-related hospitalization for those living in close proximity to incineration facilities. We also examine differences in asthma risk related to age demographics. The spatial relationship between incineratio…
Evaluating the effect of compact urban form on air quality in Korea
Air quality is affected by the interplay between emission sources and urban planning factors such as land use, built environment, development pattern, and transportation. Few empirical studies have been conducted to determine the influence of urban form characteristics on air quality in Korea. Thus, the purpose of this research is to examine the relationship between urban form and air pollution, focusing on ozone pollution in Korea. The character…
Integrating climate change adaptation into community planning using a participatory process: The case of Saebat Maeul community in Busan, Korea
Climate change is certain, given the sufficient evidence for it. Thus, it needs to be integrated into the process of spatial and community planning to empower communities so they can adapt to it. This study addresses the critical gap in the literature on community planning and climate change adaptations by creating planning methodologies based on the participatory method, and simulating application of the process to the Saebat Maeul community in …
A measurement of community disaster resilience in Korea
Building a community that is resilient to disasters has become one of the main goals of disaster management. Communities that are more disaster resilient often experience less impact from the disaster and reduced recovery periods afterwards. This study develops a methodology for constructing a set of indicators measuring Community Disaster Resilience Index (CDRI) in terms of human, social, economic, environmental, and institutional factors. In th…
Factors contributing to business actions in response to climate change in Korea
Climate change is a growing problem and has been highlighted as a global issue. Empirical evidence increasingly indicates its obvious potential risks to humans and society. As members of this society, business organizations face greatly diverse climate change-related risks that they must recognize and respond to. However, gaps exist between scientific evidence and the actions of business organizations. Few empirical studies have examined the busi…
