Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy

The Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy (BIRA-IASB) is a research organization focused on studying Earth's atmosphere and space environment. It uses satellite data, ground-based observations, and modeling to understand phenomena like ozone depletion, climate change, and space weather. Its work helps improve knowledge about how our atmosphere and space influence life on Earth, contributing to environmental protection and space safety. Based in Brussels, BIRA-IASB collaborates internationally and provides scientific insights to policymakers and the public.
