Estimation of the Time Since Death is a current comprehensive work
on the methods and research advances into the time since death and
human decomposition. This work provides practitioners a starting
point for research and practice to assist with the identification
and analysis of human remains. It contains a collection of the
latest scientific research, various estimation methods, and
includes case studies, to highlight methodological application to
real cases. This reference first provides an introduction,
including the early postmortem period, biochemical methods, and the
value of entomology in estimating the time since death, along with
other factors affecting the decomposition process. Further coverage
explores importance of microbial communities in estimating time
since death. Separate chapters on aquatic environments, carbon 14
dating and amino acid racemization, and total body scoring will
round out the reference. The final chapter ties together the
various themes in the context of the longest running human
decomposition facility in the world and outlines future research
directions.
