The Royal Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy or BIRA-IASB hosts the ICOS Belgium Science conference 2023. BIRA-IASB is a Belgian research institute focussing on the physics and chemistry of the atmosphere of the Earth and other planets, and of outer space.

BIRA-IASB is also responsible for the operation of the only Belgian atmospheric station. The station is located on Ile de La Réunion and measures background concentrations of greenhouse gases in the Indian ocean.

The conference will take place in the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, or RBINS. Although known by most people as the ‘Dinosaur’ museum, RBINS is also a research institute with scientific expertise in environmental protection, including the monitoring of CO2 concentrations and marine CO2 uptake.

Within the ICOS Belgium Network, RBINS is responsible for the operations of the Research Vessel Belgica.
