AB - At the 2022 Conference of the Parties to the CBD, the Kunming-Montreal GBF was adopted.
Among its 23 action targets, Target 3 aims to expand protected areas and OECMs to cover over 30% of national land. This study aims to identify the status of connectivity in Beakdudaegan protected areas and proposes strategies to enhance connectivity and expand protected area coverage to meet Target 3. The Baekdudaegan Protected Area expanded in 2023 to a current size of 2,776.5 km2. Analysis of the patch distribution within this area reveals 552 core areas and 617 buffer zones. Connectivity analysis using the effective mesh size method showed higher connectivity in core areas (17.82%) than in buffer zones (15.95%). Further analysis of areas narrower than 1 km and 500 m in width within the Baekdudaegan Protected Area highlights a discontinuity in the section from Jeongryeongchi to Sujeongbong, necessitating urgent connectivity measures. In particular, areas around Samsuryeong in Taebaek, Gwaebangnyeong and Wuduryeong in Yeongdong County, Deokjiri in Muju County, and Yujeongri in Jangsu County are under 500 m wide, making expansion efforts essential. Areas that are not protected areas but are adjacent to the Baekdudaegan Protected Area, where biodiversity is high or endangered wildlife resides, with strong connectivity to the Baekdudaegan Protected Area, or areas classified as Grade 1 in ecological and natural value that fall under public or state ownership, should be reviewed as potential OECM (Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures) candidate sites in the future.
