Program Publications, Grants and Presentations
Grant Funding
Dr. Pokines received a grant award for the 2022 National Institute of Justice FY22 Research and Development in Forensic Science for Criminal Justice Purposes. His grant is entitled “Gull (Laridae) Taphonomy at Shoals Marine Laboratory, Maine, USA”. The proposed research will examine the dispersal and feeding damage caused on large vertebrate remains by seasonally nesting herring gulls and great black backed gulls. It is hypothesized that these Laridae species will disperse bone at greater distances than inland avian species due to their aggressive flocking behavior and vocal signaling of other birds upon the discovery of food sources. These results will be used to formulate best search and recovery practices for dispersed human remains in coastal environments.
