Journal Article
Molina, C. M., Vasquez, A., Wisniewski, K., Heaton, V., Pringle, J., Avila, E. F., …Baena, A. (2022). Monitoring of simulated clandestine graves of dismembered victims using UAVs, electrical tomography, and GPR over one year to aid investigations of human rights violations in Colombia, South America. Journal of Forensic Sciences, 67(3), 1060-1071. https://doi.org/10.1111/1556-4029.14962

In most Latin American countries there are significant numbers of missing people and forced disappearances, over 90,000 in Colombia alone. Successful detection of shallow buried human remains by forensic search teams is difficult in varying terrain a...

Bridge foundation river scour and infill characterisation using Water Penetrating Radar (2021)
Journal Article
Campbell, K. E., Ruffell, A., Pringle, J., Hughes, D., Taylor, S., & Devlin, B. (2021). Bridge foundation river scour and infill characterisation using Water Penetrating Radar. Remote Sensing, 1-16. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs13132542

Inspections of engineered structures below water level are essential to ensure the long-term serviceability of bridge infrastructure and to avoid major damage or failure. This re-search aimed to investigate integrated geophysical technologies for the... Read More about Bridge foundation river scour and infill characterisation using Water Penetrating Radar.

Geophysical monitoring of simulated clandestine burials of murder victims to aid forensic investigators (2021)
Journal Article
Davenward, B., Mirosch, N., Spencer, F., Jervis, J. R., Pringle, J. K., Stimpson, I. G., …Heaton, V. (2021). Geophysical monitoring of simulated clandestine burials of murder victims to aid forensic investigators. Geology Today, 37(2), 63-65. https://doi.org/10.1111/gto.12344

Locating murder victims buried within clandestine graves is one of the most important and difficult challenges for forensic search teams. This article details how applied geoscientists have been geophysically monitoring simulated clandestine burials,...

A proposal for a White Paper on Geoethics in Forensic Geology (2021)
Journal Article
A. Dawson, L., Maria Di Maggio, R., McKinley, J., Di Capua, G., Peppoloni, S., & Pringle, J. (2021). A proposal for a White Paper on Geoethics in Forensic Geology. Geological Society Special Publications, 1 - 10 (10). https://doi.org/10.1144/SP508-2020-80

This paper outlines the construction of a White Paper on Geoethics in Forensic Geology. It focuses on forensic geology, although it also relates to the wider sphere of the forensic geosciences. Forensic geology is rapidly evolving to provide assistan... Read More about A proposal for a White Paper on Geoethics in Forensic Geology.
