In extreme cold, a dead body may show little to no signs of decomposition in the initial months, complicating the investigation of time of death.
Estimating the time of death in frigid conditions can be very challenging due to variability in environmental factors and individual health prior to death.
Our research indicates that studying decomposition microbes can provide new, more precise methods for estimating time of death, even in very low temperatures.
Calculating post-mortem intervals using traditional physical changes in the body is limited; molecular biology now offers more refined tools for understanding time of death.
