Postdoctoral Researcher

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes Mission, Summary, Responsibilities, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities, Qualifications, Physical Requirements, Work Environment, Hours of Work, Classification and Compensation, Location. We need to use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to appropriate headings. We have: - Mission: description of organization. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. The mission is about organization, not role. Could be "About the organization"? But not in list. The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those headings if applicable. We have responsibilities, qualifications, skills, pay, schedule, benefits. Also maybe "About the role" could contain summary/mission? The summary describes the role. So we can put summary under About the role. We have "Knowledge, Skills and Abilities" which maps to Skills (maybe also Requirements). We have "Qualifications". We have "Physical Requirements" maybe under Requirements? But we could create a Requirements section that includes Ph.D., etc. However we already have Qualifications separate. The instruction says we can use Requirements heading. But we need to decide. We have "Classification and Compensation" includes salary range and benefits mention. So we can have Pay section (salary) and Benefits section (benefits package). Also Schedule: Hours of Work (full-time, 40 hrs, may exceed). So we can have Schedule. Location: maybe not a heading; could be included in About the role or a short p. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, application instructions, etc. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract substantive content: Mission paragraph: description of Woodwell Climate. Summary paragraph: role description. Responsibilities list: bullet points (starting with Conducting research..., Supporting colleagues..., Interfacing..., Participating..., Sharing progress..., Contributing flexibly..., Produce peer-reviewed manuscripts...). Knowledge, Skills and Abilities list: many items. Qualifications: Ph.D. degree in ... field. Physical Requirements: list of abilities (walking, standing, sitting, lift 25 lbs, communicate, kneel, bend, carry items, use phone and computers, repetitive movements). Work Environment: functions conducted indoors. Hours of Work: role paid on salary basis; typically full-time employees work 40 hours Monday-Friday; salaried position expected to work as required to complete duties; may mean weekend hours and/or beyond 40 per week. Classification and Compensation: full-time salaried exempt; annual salary range starting at $73,000 (Falmouth, MA based) dependent on qualifications/experience; Woodwell offers generous benefits package and work life balance; compensation for remote/out-of-state may vary based on local geographic differentials. Location: Falmouth, Massachusetts, hybrid or remote. We need to output HTML fragment with

headings and appropriate content. We need to decide sections: - About the role: could include Mission and Summary? Maybe combine mission and summary as description of organization and role. But mission is about organization, not role. However we can still put under About the role: "Woodwell Climate conducts science for solutions..." plus summary. Better: Use About the role for role description (summary). Could also include mission as context but okay. - Responsibilities:

However instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have Requirements for physical requirements and work environment. Qualifications for Ph.D. etc. Skills for knowledge, skills and abilities. - Benefits:

    About the role

    Woodwell Climate conducts science for solutions at the nexus of climate, people, and nature. We partner with leaders and communities around the world for just meaningful impact to address the climate crisis. Woodwell Climate is a global non-profit, working at the intersection of science and decision-making. We are built on a foundation of world-class research with the drive to take action and contribute real-world solutions - partnering with communities, businesses and policymakers to protect life and livelihoods from the devastating impacts of climate change. Founded in 1985 by world-renowned ecologist George Woodwell, our organization is headquartered in Falmouth, MA with over 150 employees.

    Join Woodwell Climate’s Ecosystem Protection and Restoration team as a Postdoctoral Researcher seeking to advance the science of quantifying and valuing the non-carbon climate benefits of Amazon basin forests with an emphasis on those stewarded by Indigenous and Quilombola Territories. The successful candidate will have demonstrated research experience and/or a strong interest in understanding the primary biophysical mechanisms by which forests regulate climate (evapotranspiration (ET), surface roughness, and albedo) and the extent to which these mechanisms exert controls over local-to-regional patterns of temperature and precipitation. Working closely with Woodwell science and policy leaders and external partners, the ideal candidate will have a passion for connecting science to impact, specifically opportunities to support and inform land management decisions, climate policy development, and Indigenous rights advocacy.

    Location: Falmouth, Massachusetts, hybrid or remote.

    We should not include any extra sections like "About the organization" etc. Make sure no markdown fences. Just raw HTML. Check that we didn't repeat job title. Good. Check that we didn't include application instructions or EEO. Good. Check that we preserved all substantive info: mission, summary, responsibilities, skills, qualifications, physical requirements, work environment, benefits, pay, schedule, location. Yes. We omitted "Hours of Work" details but we included in Schedule. Good. We omitted "Classification and Compensation" details but we captured pay and benefits. We omitted "Physical Requirements" separate but we included under Requirements. We omitted "Work Environment" separate but we included under Requirements. We omitted "Desired Start Date: November 2026 Fixed-term: 1.5 years". That's substantive info about term and start date. Should we include? It's not covered by any heading. Could add a short p under About the role or maybe a separate section like "Appointment". But headings list does not include a specific heading for term. Could we add a paragraph under About the role? The instruction says we can use headings only from the list, but we can also have paragraphs without headings. So we can add a paragraph after About the role: "Desired
