DescPolicy Relevant Research: Scientific excellence is the foundation for all of Woodwell Climate Research Center's activities, and distinguishes WCRC from other NGOs in the environmental sector. Through a holistic, multidisciplinary, applied, and team-focused approach, we seek to create breakthrough understanding of climate change impacts and solutions, for the purpose of informing sound environmental policies from the local to global scale. WCRC's research is focused on the land-climate connection - how changes in land use effect the climate system; how the changing climate is altering systems on land such as forests, ecosystems and agriculture; and what land-management strategies can harness the power of nature to slow climate change. Most of this research is conducted in the arctic and the tropics-critical regions where natural systems contain disproportionate shares of the planet's biodiversity and stored carbon, but where deforestation, agriculture, fire, and climatic warming place these assets at great risk.Desc

To leave an educational legacy, WCRC offers hands-on experiential programs to train a new generation of climate science leaders. WCRC fosters immersive educational programs that encourage students to link field research with big-picture solutions in the challenging and fast-changing environments where we work.Desc

ExplanationAt times the Organization provides employees with additional performance-based compensation. At the discretion of the President/CEO, the bonus provided in 2024 for all staff was provided to recognize excellent work by those individuals over the prior fiscal year. The amount provided as bonuses was generally 3% of base compensation for all employees, determined to be appropriate by the CEO, with exceptions made in some cases where additional compensation was deemed warranted. The President/CEO's employment contract provides for a merit based bonus if approved by the Board of Directors. The Board determines incentive goals each year and then annually determines whether sufficient progress toward those goals has been made. In 2024 the Board approved a bonus to the President/CEO in the amount indicated based on successful attainment of those incentive goals.ExplanationTxt
