Australian Facility for Taphonomic Experimental Research

澳大利亚埋葬学实验研究设施：该项目的目的是建立一个独特的澳大利亚研究设施，致力于研究人体分解的物理、化学和生物过程。该设施将是澳大利亚和南半球的第一个此类设施，汇集了广泛的埋藏学学科的专家合作团队。这项研究的结果有望促进我们对澳大利亚自然环境中作用于遗骸的地语学过程的有限理解。这些成果将有助于警察和法医部门改进其在国内和国际范围内搜索、定位、恢复和识别失踪人员、杀人案受害者和灾害受害者的程序。

Australian facility for taphonomic experimental research: The aim of this project is to establish a unique Australian research facility dedicated to studying the physical, chemical, and biological processes of human decomposition. This facility will be the first of its kind in Australia and the Southern Hemisphere, drawing together a collaborative team of experts in a broad range of taphonomy disciplines. The results of the research are expected to advance our limited understanding of the taphonomic processes acting on remains in a natural Australian environment. The outcomes will assist police and forensic services to improve their procedures for searching, locating, recovering, and identifying missing persons, victims of homicide, and victims of disaster on both a national and international scale.
