An Analysis of Local Quantity of Carbon Absorption, Fixing and Discharge by Using GIS

Due to increasing greenhouse gas emissions, global warming and abnormal weather phenomena it has become important on a national level to keep a count of greenhouse gases being emitted. In this study, we want to take advantage of any selected area, as the basic data for the calculation of greenhouse gas emissions, forest and grassland, rice fields, and the fields (crops), Greenhouse horticulture (Crops), barn (cow, pig), farm (population, agricultural machinery set, vehicles, etc.), the basic building blocks shots with a small amount of per-unit basis, the statistics calculated based on regional carbon emissions through the literature and experimental. As a result, carbon absorption 772,960 ton C / year, amount of fixed 487,477 ton C / year, amount of emission 1,112,607 ton C / year were noted in Gimje-si, and amount of carbon absorption 55,559 ton C / year, amount of fixed 25,864 ton C / year, amount of emissions 58,355 ton C / year in Gongdeok-myeon, respectively. The carbon absorption at Hwangsan-ri is 25,107 ton C/year, fixing 4,301 ton C/year, and discharge 20,330 ton C/year respectively. From these results, we were able to estimate the amount of carbon according to the specific characteristics of each unit village, then expanding it to a large-scale and comparative analysis, therefore we were able to obtain basic data on the national levels of carbon absorption.
