Seris Forest Analytics

Bridging science, policy, and practice for better forest landscape outcomes

Our mission is to connect forest sciences, policy, and practice — turning data into decisions that sustain forests, strengthen reporting integrity, and support a resilient global forest economy.

Our Services

Forest Resources Reporting, Trade Compliance, and Sustainability Metrics

Informed by direct experience contributing to U.S. national reporting to FAO and other international frameworks, this service focuses on analyzing forest datasets to support compliance with international trade policy or voluntary commitments. Offerings include evaluating forest-related indicators and definitions, interpreting trade policy implications, and identifying practical compliance pathways.

Forest Carbon Quantification and MMRV Advisory

Practical support for voluntary and compliance carbon markets, including REDD+. Services span forest carbon stock assessment, inventory and data system design, and evaluation of carbon accounting methodologies.

Forest Carbon Analytics Platform Development

End-to-end support for the design, testing, and delivery of digital platforms that quantify greenhouse gas emissions and removals from forests and wood products. This includes methodology development, data and model integration, and user experience design.

Science Delivery and Technical Communication

Bridging science and policy through clear, credible communication. Deliverables range from technical reports and policy briefs to training materials and infographics, with a focus on translating complex forest and carbon science into accessible, user-friendly formats.

What Our Clients Are Saying

“It has been a privilege to work alongside Lara in the Carbon space. She combines deep expertise in carbon science, methodologies, and greenhouse gas accounting with a unique ability to translate complex technical research into practical, nationally recognized guidance. Her leadership in helping to develop tools for emissions reporting and in support of wood product markets has greatly advanced our platform development and will soon help empower stakeholders to make informed decisions.”

Alicia Cramer
Chief Operating Officer
U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities

“Lara’s deep knowledge of all things data in the forestry world (whether domestic or international) has armed our organization’s advocacy efforts. Her ability to navigate USDA and FAO datasets is unprecedented and has enabled NAFO to engage in policy discussions on a number of topics (e.g., carbon, national inventory systems, deforestation rates, etc.), in a manner to which we would not have otherwise been able.”

Bryan Petit
Vice President for Policy and Regulatory Affairs
National Alliance of Forest Owners

“Lara Murray was exceptionally proactive, hardworking, and timely throughout the consultancy work she did for our forest-agroforestry project in Peru, supporting carbon removals estimation from native Amazonian tree species. Based on her technical expertise and the quality of her delivery, I would happily recommend her services at Seris Forest Analytics.”
