Woodwell Climate Research Center

Founded in 1985, Woodwell Climate is an independent nonprofit research center with a focused staff and an eight-acre campus in Falmouth, Massachusetts. Its teams combine field and laboratory research, satellite remote sensing, and computer modeling, with a hybrid workforce and long-term field presence across four continents. The center works with companies, governments, international organizations, Indigenous peoples, and local communities, involving collaborators throughout research so findings can inform policy and real-world decisions. Federal awards include support from NASA, the National Science Foundation, NOAA, and the Department of Energy; foundation grants and contract revenue also contribute to its funding.
