NUBICOS aims to strengthen ICOS from inside, to improve its exploitation by specific scientific user communities and to support its connection to broader societal applications, by intensifying the connection to the Copernicus services and the Global Greenhouse Gas Monitoring System recently initiated by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).

NUBICOS has 4 core objectives:
- Improved data quality and utilisation of data through tighter collaboration with the remote sensing community, thus consolidating the global greenhouse gas observations and European Research Infrastructure landscape.
- Improved value generation from observations to climate services through targeted evolution of ICOS.
- Increased efficiency of ICOS through strengthened national nodes and improved staff skills.
- Integration of ICOS into the global innovation ecosystem of environmental monitoring through intensified cooperation with the WMO framework.
