  • Economic Assessment of Flood Control Facilities Under Climate Uncertainty: a Case of Nakdong River, South Korea
    sustainability Article Economic Assessment of Flood Control Facilities under Climate Uncertainty: A Case of Nakdong River, South Korea Kyeongseok Kim 1,* ID and Ji-Sung Kim 2 ID 1 School of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul 03277, Korea 2 Hydro Science and Engineering Research Institute, Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology, Goyang-Si 10223, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-2123-7940 Received: 6 November 2017; Accepted: 24 January 2018; Published: 25 January 2018 Abstract: Climate change contributes to enhanced flood damage that has been increasing for the last several decades. Understanding climate uncertainties improves adaptation strategies used for investment in flood control facilities. This paper proposes an investment decision framework for one flood zone to cope with future severe climate impacts. This framework can help policy-makers investigate the cost of future damage and conduct an economic assessment using real options under future climate change scenarios. The proposed methodology provides local municipalities with an adaptation strategy for flood control facilities in a flood zone. Using the proposed framework, the flood prevention facilities in the Nakdong River Basin of South Korea was selected as a case study site to analyze the economic assessment of the investments for flood control facilities. Using representative concentration pathway (RCP) climate scenarios, the cost of future flood damage to 23 local municipalities was calculated, and investment strategies for adaptation were analyzed. The project option value was determined by executing an option to invest in an expansion that would adapt to floods under climate change. The results of the case study showed that the proposed flood facilities are economically feasible under both scenarios used.

Manufacture has acquired new and advanced materials, and daily contrives new inventions and devises new products. Biotechnology is increasing food production with genetically altered plants and animals, and soon, meat not taken from butchered animals but grown from stem cells. Production is no longer bounded by the limitations of human labor; electrical and nuclear energy power the machines and robots shape materials and assemble cars, jet airplanes, computers, and soon everything. Nanotechnology is beginning to assemble molecules atom by atom, on the way to manufacture computer circuitry out of sand, gold out of lead, even living cells out of atoms. We see ourselves beginning an essentially new kind of human existence, acquiring a new nature— postevolutionary, transhuman. We are awed, fascinated, but also bewildered by the prospect with an abundance beyond all our needs and desires; how shall we deal with it? We are watching extraordinary advances in biotechnology, which promise not only to cure and prevent diseases and correct defects, but, with pharmaceuticals, gene therapy and nanotechnology, to endow our bodies and our minds with greater and also new capacities.
