演講簡介
金教授的研究整合了空間人口學、公共衛生與環境風險的研究成果，並以南韓前所未有的人口變遷為背景——該國擁有全球最低的總生育率以及最快速的超高齡化進程。他的演講將分為兩部分：(a) 演講將說明南韓的人口減少與超高齡化如何以空間與時間明確的方式發展，透過人口預測、dasymetric 制圖技術，結合集成機器學習與地理資訊系統（GIS）進行分析。他也將討論這些人口動態對南韓的影響，包括但不限於血液供應不足、醫院資源短缺以及 K-12 學校的配置等。
(b) 當考慮未來的環境風險，例如極端高溫、海平面上升及空氣污染時，他指出對於像南韓與台灣這類國家而言，環境風險的研究方式必須有所不同，因為這些國家的人口變遷速度與氣候變遷影響程度均超過其他已開發國家。
總結而言，金教授的研究說明了將先進的空間人口預測與環境及公共衛生模型整合的必要性。研究結果提供了在地化、高解析度的證據，對於資源分配、氣候變遷調適及公共衛生基礎建設規劃，尤其在南韓迅速轉變的人口結構下，具有關鍵意義。
Professor O Kim’s research synthesizes findings across spatial demography, public health, and environmental risks, all framed by the unprecedented demographic shift in South Korea—characterized by the world’s lowest total fertility rate and fastest super aging. His talk will be twofold: (a) It will show how depopulation and super aging will progress in South Korea in a spatially and temporally explicit way via population projection and dasymetric mapping with the support of ensemble machine learning and geographic information systems (GIS). He will also discuss how such population dynamics will impact South Korea, including but not limited to, in terms of insufficient blood supply, hospitals, and K-12 schools. (b) When future environmental risks, namely extreme heat, sea-level rise, and air pollution, are taken into account, he argues that such risks must be researched differently for countries, like South Korea and Taiwan, because our demographic shifts progress as well as climate change impacts are more extreme than other developed countries. In conclusion, his research demonstrates the necessity of integrating advanced spatial demographic forecasts with both environmental and public health models. The findings provide localized, high-resolution evidence crucial for allocating resources, adapting to climate change, and securing public health infrastructure amidst South Korea’s rapidly transforming demographic structure.
講者介紹
金博士是韓國大學副教授，也是現任亞洲人口協會秘書長。
金教授的核心專業知識是人類環境系統，通過空間人口學、土地變遷科學及氣候變遷的環境壓力等視角，探討關鍵研究問題。
他對東亞地區的地理專精——尤其是對韓國非軍事區（DMZ）獨特環境的研究——更是引人注目。
Dr. Kim is an Associate Professor at Korea University. He is the current Secretary General of the Asian Population Association.
Dr. Kim’s work is salient to many of our research areas. His core expertise is the coupled human-environment system, tackling key questions through the lenses of spatial demography, land change science, and the environmental pressures of climate change. His geographic specialization in East Asia—especially his research on the unique environment of the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)—is particularly compelling.
