Events & Courses

This multidisciplinary meeting will capture shared interests between the geological, environmental science, forensic science, geophysics, engineering, geotechnical, mining and archaeological communities in assessing the future of forensic geoscience.

Sessions will include:

• quality assurance in forensic geoscience;
• geoforensic applications in serious crime and terrorism investigations;
• techniques at crime scenes;
• environmental crime; and
• the issues of interpretation of geological forensic evidence.

This event follows on from the Near Surface Geophysics Group's 2 December meeting, Recent Work in Archaeological Geophysics.
