Our approach emphasizes early risk identification, statistically sound monitoring design, and transparent assumptions - so projects move forward with fewer surprises and greater credibility.
Sorus’ methodologies and tools have been applied across 15+ forest and agroforestry carbon projects in North America and Spain, supporting $20M+ in private financing, $2M in federal grants, and MRV plans that cleared Verra validation. The firm’s work integrates field data, growth-and-yield modeling, and landscape-scale analysis to produce results that are both scientifically rigorous and commercially usable.
Sorus is led by Benjamin Bishop, a forestry and agroforestry scientist based in Sacramento, California, working with clients across the U.S. and internationally. His work spans field data, growth-and-yield modeling, and MRV design for commercial-scale forest carbon projects, with a focus on clear, decision-ready analysis.
