Current Higher Education undergraduates are mostly so-called generation ‘Y’ students who have grown up with computer technologies and computer gaming. As such, learning resources that employ computer game interfaces and design provide a familiar expe...

Long-term Geophysical Monitoring of Simulated Clandestine Graves using Electrical and Ground Penetrating Radar Methods: 4–6 Years After Burial. Journal of Forensic Sciences, 61(2), 309-321. https://doi.org/10.1111/1556-4029.13009

This ongoing monitoring study provides forensic search teams with systematic geophysical data over simulated clandestine graves for comparison to active cases. Simulated ‘wrapped’, ‘naked’ and ‘control’ burials were created. Multiple geophysical surv...

Soilwater conductivity analysis to date and locate clandestine graves of homicide victims (2015)
Journal Article
Pringle, J. P., Cassella, J. P., Jervis, J. R., Williams, A., Cross, P., & Cassidy, N. J. (2015). Soilwater conductivity analysis to date and locate clandestine graves of homicide victims. Journal of Forensic Sciences, 60(4), 1052-1060. https://doi.org/10.1111/1556-4029.12802

In homicide investigations, it is critically important that postmortem interval and postburial interval (PBI) of buried victims are determined accurately. However, clandestine graves can be difficult to locate; and the detection rates for a variety o...

In most Latin American countries there are significant numbers of missing people and forced disappearances, 68,000 alone currently in Colombia. Successful detection of shallow buried human remains by forensic search teams is difficult in varying terr...

The use of magnetic susceptibility as a forensic search tool (2014)
Journal Article
Pringle, J. K., Giubertoni, M., Cassidy, N. J., Wisniewski, K. D., Hansen, J. D., Linford, N. T., & Daniels, R. M. (2015). The use of magnetic susceptibility as a forensic search tool. Forensic Science International, 246, 31 -42. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.forsciint.2014.10.046

There are various techniques available for forensic search teams to employ to successfully detect a buried object. Near-surface geophysical search methods have been dominated by ground penetrating radar but recently other techniques, such as electric...
