Abstract

Accurate assessment of greenhouse gas emissions is a cornerstone of every climate change response study, and reliable assessment of greenhouse gas emission data is being used as a practical basis for the entire climate change prediction and modeling studies. Essential, fundamental technologies for estimating greenhouse gas emissions include an on-site monitoring technology, an evaluation methodology of uncertainty in emission factors, and a verification technology for reductions. The closed chamber method is being commonly used to measure gas fluxes between soil-vegetation and atmosphere. This method has the advantages of being simple, easily available and economical. This study presented the technical bases of the closed chamber method for measuring methane fluxes from a rice paddy. The methane fluxes from rice paddies occupy the largest portion of a single source of greenhouse gas in the agricultural field. We reviewed the international and the domestic studies on automated chamber monitoring systems that have been developed from manually operated chambers. Based on this review, we discussed scientific concerns on chamber methods with a particular focus on quality control for improving measurement reliability of field data.

온실가스 배출량의 정확한 평가는 모든 기후변화 대응 연구의 초석이며, 신뢰성이 높은 온실가스 배출량의 평가는 모든 기후변화 예측 및 모델링 연구의 실질적인 기초자료로서 활용된다. 온실가스 배출량 산정 기반 기술로서 온실가스 배출량 현장 모니터링 기술, 배출계수의 불확도 평가 기술, 온실가스 배출량 및 저감량 검증 기술 등이 필수적이다. 이런 기반 기술의 핵심에는 토양-식생-대기 간에 교환되는 온실가스 플럭스 산정을 위해 가장 보편적으로 많이 사용되는 폐쇄형 정적 챔버법의 모니터링 기술이 자리 잡고 있다. 본 연구에서는 농업분야 온실가스 단일 배출원으로 가장 큰 부분을 차지하는 벼논에서 발생하는 CH4 플럭스 측정용 폐쇄형 챔버법의 기술적 근간과, 수동형 챔버법에서 전 과정의 자동화 시스템으로 발전을 거듭하고 있는 자동화 챔버 모니터링 기술개발에 대한 국내·외 동향을 소개하였다. 이를 바탕으로 보편적으로 사용하고 있는 챔버법의 표준화된 방법의 고찰과 정확한 현장 자료를 얻기 위한 품질관리 방안이 마련될 수 있을 것이다. 또한 CH4 플럭스 측정방법의 신뢰성 높은 기술 발전 방향에 대해 조망하여 벼논 CH4 배출량 산정 결과들의 신뢰성 향상에 기여하게 될 것으로 전망한다.
