    Mikoš, Matjaž ...
    A strong international cooperation in the field of science and technology is 0f a paramount importance for a small country such as Slovenia, Central Europe(20,273 km2; population of 2 million). Since ... landsliding is an importantnatural hazard in Slovenia, international cooperation in landslide research and risk mitigation is a must. The University of Ljubljana as the largest and the oldest university in Slovenia (established in 1919) joined theICL in 2008. In this paper, a structure and some preliminary results of the3-year European research project called PARAmount (2009-2012) are presented(the acronym PARAmount stands for improved Accessibility: Reliability and security of Alpine transport infrastructure related to mountainous hazards in a changing climate). The natural hazards covered by the PARAmount project are avalanches, rock falls and debris flows. The field activities in Slovenia were conducted in 2 testbed regions: on the Koroška Bela torrential fan (debris flow), along a state railway between the towns of Jesenice and Nova Gorica (rock fall & avalanches), and along a parallel main state road from Bled to Bohinjska Bistrica in the Bohinjska Soteska gorge.
