Corpse floating in running or stagnant water may not keep a tail of its exact place of drowning. Disagreement between diatoms recovered from the body and those in the presumed drowning medium may possibly advocate that body has been moved from its exact site of drowning. It emphasizes on the importance of water sampling from where the body is found. Diatomological Mapping (D-Mapping) of water bodies assumes to be an important means to solve this problem even when reference water sample is not available. Information of the present attempt has been exercised to scratch the authenticity of D-maps of these four water bodies after a gap of four years (2007-2011). Current records have been found interesting and significant for the authenticity of D-maps for a prolong characterization of water bodies.
漂浮在流动或静止水中的尸体可能不会留下确切溺水地点的线索。从尸体中发现的硅藻与假定溺水介质中的硅藻不一致，可能表明尸体已从确切溺水地点转移。这强调了从发现尸体处采集水样的重要性。即使没有参考水样，水体的硅藻图谱绘制（D-图谱绘制）也被认为是解决这一问题的重要手段。在四年（2007 - 2011年）的间隔后，利用本次尝试的信息来检验这四个水体D-图谱的真实性。目前的记录对于水体长期特征描述的D-图谱真实性而言，已发现具有趣味性和重要意义。
