The session aims to investigate how to combine fundamental climate and geochemical mapping and modelling with applied forensic provenancing casework.
The conveners therefore invite contributions on light and heavy isotope and instrumental and analytical approaches, theoretical consideration and discussion of actual research and casework.

Public information: This session covers a wide range of exciting topics such as environmental forensics, soil provenancing, human provenancing, food authenticity / traceability, detection of counterfeits, drug trafficking, (forensic) archaeology, (forensic) anthropology, tracing animal migration patterns to isotope mapping. Delegates will present case studies as well as developments in spatial modelling (especially probabilistic approaches to isoscapes), quality assurance (e.g. forensic continuity in an academic isotope laboratory), and R&D in analytical techniques.
