A senior researcher at Jeju Development Institute, Kang Jinyeong outlined potential weather changes for Jeju by 2100 according a RCP (Representative Concentration Pathways) 8.5 weather-change scenario.

The results indicate that Jeju’s average temperature will increase compared to previous scenarios and rainfall in particular is expected to increase significantly.

The RCP 8.5 suggests that from 2011 to 2100, weather changes will differ by region. Gujwa-eup in the northeast and Seongsan-eup in the southeast could experience the highest rise in temperatures and a longer summer. Namwon-eup and Pyoseon-myeon, in the south/southeast, can expect heavier precipitation.

In the northwest and southwest, respectively, Hangyeong-myeon and Daejeong-eup are expected to experience more tropical nights and a longer agricultural growing season. On the other hand, the scenario showed that these two regions can expect the lowest average annual rainfall.

Kang says that it is imperative for local authorities to put in place a roadmap to manage such change so villages can respond to their changing situations. Local infrastructure is needed soon at the village level to mitigate and respond to changes in weather before it is too late.
