Abstract
This study examines the impacts and prospects of climate change on paper and textile heritage, focusing on overseas researches, and derives suggestions for the preservation of Korean heritage. According to the analysis of the future prospects of the indoor climate, which is closely related to the preservation of movable cultural heritage including paper and textile heritage, damage to the entire cultural assets located indoors is inevitably expected as changes in temperature and humidity inside buildings are predicted during the 21st century. In particular, with respect to chemical damage of paper and textile heritage, the trend of temperature increase will lead to a significant increase in the degradation rate, and the resulting damage is clearly expected to increase. Due to the trend of temperature rise and humidity change, geographic expansion as well as the increase in the population and number of generations of harmful organisms, and the increase in the risk of invasive species have already occurred, resulting in intensifying the biological damage to paper and textile heritage further in the future. In order to quantify the impact of climate change on paper and textile heritage in Korea, it is essential to monitor the indoor climate of various types of buildings and to monitor mold and pests. In addition, it is necessary to synthesize the simulation results of future climate change impacts by supporting laboratory studies on fungal and pest species. It is time to spur into developing effective and eco-friendly methods of insect and fungus removal considering that future damage to paper and textile heritage is expected to increase due to climate change in Korea.

지류･직물 문화유산은 소재 특성상 보존환경에 매우 취약하고 미미한 환경 변화에도 급속도로 손상될 수 있다. 본 연구는 국외 연구사례를 중심으로 기후변화가 지류･직물 유산에 미치는 영향과 전망을 고찰하고, 우리나라 유산의 보존을 위한 제언을 도출하였다. 지류･직물 유산과 같은 동산 문화유산의 보존과 밀접한 실내기후의 향후 전망을 분석한 결과에 따르면 21세기 동안 건물 내부 온도와 습도의 변화가 전망됨에 따라 필연적으로 실내에 위치한 유물 전반에 대한 손상이 예상되고 있다. 특히 지류･직물 유산의 화학적 손상과 관련하여 기온 상승 추세는 재료 열화율의 상당한 증가로 이어질 것이며 그에 따른 피해가 분명히 증가할 것으로 나타났다. 또한 기온 상승과 습도 변화 추세로 인해 가해생물들의 지리적 범위 확산, 개체군 및 세대 수 증가, 침입종 위험 증가가 이미 나타나고 있고, 향후 그 속도가 더욱 빨라질 것으로 예상됨에 따라 지류･직물 유산의 생물학적 손상 역시 심화될 전망이다. 우리나라의 지류･직물 유산의 기후변화 영향을 정량화하기 위해서는 다양한 유형별 건물의 실내기후 모니터링과 곰팡이･해충 모니터링을 필수적으로 이루어져야 할 것이다. 여기에 가해 곰팡이･해충종에 대한 실험실 연구를 뒷받침하여 미래 기후변화 영향 시뮬레이션 결과를 종합할 필요가 있다. 향후 우리나라 역시 기후변화에 의한 지류･직물 유산의 피해 증가가 전망된다는 점을 고려하여 효과적이고 친환경적인 충･균 제거 방법의 개발이 필요한 시점이다.
