Introduction of our Partners: The Slovenian Environment Agency

The Slovenian Environment Agency

Slovenian Environment Agency (ARSO) is a body of the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy and performs expert, research, analytical, regulatory and administrative tasks related to the environment at the national level. ARSO is considered the main environmental data provider for Slovenia. Its mission is to monitor, analyse and forecast natural phenomena and processes in the environment, and to reduce natural threats to people and property. At ARSO, we help citizens and state bodies to make appropriate decisions related to the environment.

We monitor and analyse natural phenomena and processes in the environment; for example, weather, water quality and quantity, air quality, climate change, and earthquakes. With forecasts of weather, high waters, air pollution and bio-forecast, we contribute to reducing the natural threat to people and their property. Most of these tasks are performed within the national services for meteorology, hydrology, oceanography and seismology.

ARSO is contributing to all tasks within the Danube-ADAPT project.
