摘要

Our research focused on two major aims of forensic science: to estimate the postmorteminterval (PMI) of corpses and to locate clandestine gravesites. Establishing the time sincedeath is critical in every death investigation, yet existing techniques are susceptible to arange of errors and biases. For example, forensic entomology is widely used to assessPMI, but errors in estimates can range from days to months. Microbes may provide anovel method for estimating PMI that circumvents these limitations. Furthermore, ifdistinctive microbial communities form in the soil, these could potentially be used toidentify clandestine gravesites. Our purpose was to determine whether the succession ofbacterial and microbial eukaryotic communities associated with corpses and theirgravesoil are sufficiently predictable to be useful for forensic science and criminaljustice.
