Soil Analysis in Forensic Taphonomy: Chemical and Biological Effects of Buried Human RemainsMark Tibbett, David O. Carter CRC Press, 27/02/2008 - 364 páginas A burial environment is a complex and dynamic system. It plays host to an abundance of interdependent chemical, physical, and biological processes, which are greatly influenced by the inclusion of a body and its subsequent decay. However, while taphonomy continues to emerge as a valuable forensic tool, until now most of the attention has been on th |
