Description :
The rapidly expanding field of forensic geoscience derives its roots from nineteenth- and early twentieth-century. Forensic geoscience borrows much, but not all, of its precepts from geological and geomorphological analytical techniques. Forensic geoscience and physical geography/geology utilize the same information, but the philosophical approach of the two could not be more contrasting. There is a fundamental difference between the interpretation and presentation of geoforensic results and those of geomorphological and geological studies.
