core temperature, if it's room temperature, then i think decomposure rate/other factors...

see here too:http://www.studyworld.com/basementpapers/papers/stack12_14.html

and here: http://www.arrakis.es/~jacoello/date.pdf ***also rigor, which is how stiff the joints are, and i can't remember the technical term, but the pooling of the blood in the body to the lowest point in way of temperature, it's about 1degree per hour until at room temp. factors such as excessive heat or cold can render this method void, which is when the other possible ways are used. edit: as said on the pages i added earlier, rigor mortis is stiffness of limbs, livor mortis is pooling of blood at lowest points of the body, also, the eyes and skin undergo changes, as well as the concentrations of chemicals and certain cellular... things...
