Slight increase in emissions (releases from pollution sources into the immediate environment) in 1995 was related to increased consumption of natural gas. Decrease in 1996 was caused by a change to the emission factor that took into consideration the current level of equipment and technology of incineration processes. Reduction in solid fuel consumption since 1997 has led to a further decrease in NOx emissions. NOx emissions in 2001 dropped approximately by 50.8% when compared to 1990.

  • Danube Facts and Figures the Slovak Republic
    Danube Facts and Figures: Slovakia Danube Facts and Figures The Slovak Republic (March 2007) General Overview The Slovak Republic is located in Central Europe and shares borders with Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Ukraine. The country covers 49,034km 2 and nearly all of this area – 47,084km2 or 96% of the country – lies in the Danube River Basin. Slovakia has been a signatory state to the Danube River Protection Convention since 1994, and has been a Party to the Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes since 1999. The Slovak Republic joined the European Union in 2004. Topography A major part of the Slovak territory is located in the Carpathian Mountains, but almost one quarter of the country is formed by lowlands. The Vienna Basin extends into Slovakia from the west, the Pannonian Plain from the southwest and the Great Danubian Basin from the southeast. These lowlands form part of the ecological region known as the Hungarian Lowlands. Precipitation, climate and water flow The climate of Slovakia is influenced by its location in a temperate zone. There are several types of climate regions within the country – from cold mountain (along the upper Váh River) to warm dry regions with moderate winters and more sunlight in the south. The long-term average temperature varies from 0-10 degrees, according to the region. The long-term average annual precipitation ranges from 2,000mm.y-1 along the upper Váh River to 500 mm.y-1 in the south along the Bodrog and Danube Rivers.

DGAPanalyse 6 | May 2014 Summary Slovakia in the EU: An Unexpected Success Story? by Milan Nič, Marek Slobodník, and Michal Šimečka Slovakia has emerged as an unlikely success story of the 2004 EU enlargement. The country’s first decade as a member state was marked by robust growth – spur- red by pro-market reforms of the early 2000s – and relative economic resilience and political stability during the global economic crisis. Thematic priorities on the EU level have included cohesion policy, energy, EU enlargement, and the Euro- pean Neighborhood Policy (ENP). Slovak diplomacy has seen regional groupings – above all the Visegrad format – as the most effective way of pursuing its policy preferences. As the only eurozone member in the Visegrad Group (V4), Slovakia remains a reliable if somewhat passive supporter of deeper European integration, supporting a fiscally responsible approach.
