Abstract

This research suggested that forest fuel is a factor that can be adjusted and managed among the three major elements of forest fire: climatic conditions, topographic conditions, and forest fuel conditions by analyzing the causes of domestic forest fires and the specificity of the forest fire environment. In addition, the trend of overseas forest fire management policies is shifting from forest fire extinguishing policies to prevention policies, and forest fire prevention and management is being conducted through prescribed fire as a major method of reducing forest fuels. Although the concept and recognition of prescription fire is unfamiliar in Korea, I would like to suggest that it be used as a direct and fundamental forest fire management policy.

본 연구에서는 국내 산불발생의 원인과 산불환경의 특수성을 분석하여 산불 주요 3요소인 기후조건, 지형조건, 산림연료조건 중에 산림연료는 조정 및 관리가능한 인자이며 사전에 저감을 통해 산불위험성을 저감시킬 수 있음을 제시하였다. 또한 국외 산불관리정책이 산불 진화정책에서 예방위주정책으로 전환되는 추세이며, 산림연료 저감시키는 주요방법으로 처방화입(prescribed fire)를 통해 산불예방관리를 하고 있다. 국내에는 처방화입에 관한 개념 및 인식이 생소하나 직접적이고 근본적인 산불관리 정책으로써의 활용되기를 제안하고자 한다.
