A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND ECONOMIC COSTS CALCULATION

摘要

The present invention relates to a system and a method for assessing the impact of climate change on health and calculating economic costs caused by the climate change. Specifically, the system for assessing the impact of climate change on health and calculating economic costs caused by the climate change uses an integrated climate and air quality modeling system (ICAMS) to calculate future changes in air quality concentration of each city and town according to a climate change scenario and implement a system for analyzing the entire processes regarding climates, atmospheres, health impacts, and economic costs. The system for assessing health issues and calculating economic costs caused by the climate change according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a climate data storage unit; atmosphere environment data storage unit; an administrative district data storage unit; a unit administrative district data conversion unit; a forecast data storage unit; a health impact forecast data storage unit; an economic cost forecast storage unit; and a display unit.
