This highly successful text, now in its second edition, has been extensively revised and expanded to cover new algorithms. The text, maintaining the no-nonsense, get-to-the-fact approach taken in the first edition, focuses on the needs of students, practitioners, and researchers. The source code has been simplified and expanded. The text includes advanced theory applications and practical notes. GSLIB can be used as a starting point for custom programs, advanced applications, and research. The code is presented in this edition on a CD-ROM.

Editorial Reviews
Review
Praise for the previous edition:
"Provides concise theoretical discussions of relevant geostatistical concepts, with an emphasis on placing the provided routines in the context of current geostatistical practice. The text is loaded with citations and the resulting bibliography is a valuable resource within itself."--Kansas Geological Survey

5.0 out of 5 stars
GSLIB--Powerful tools for power users,
By Robert W. Clayton (Nevada, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: GSLIB: Geostatistical Software Library and User's Guide (Applied Geostatistics) (Hardcover)
This is definitely not a book for the faint-of-mathematical-heart. As the title indicates, this is a user's manual for the GSLIB software (which is included on CD-ROM), and it includes discussions of all the supporting statistical mathematics. This makes the book invaluable to the user who is already well-grounded in statistics, and difficult to follow for the rest. There are very few lifelines to pull non-statisticians out of the jargon mire.Nevertheless, if you're well-versed (and you probably are if you're considering purchasing this software), this is one heck of a powerful set of tools. The software includes a Kriging smorgasbord, simulation, variography, display tools, and is self-contained with few exceptions. The software is platform-independent, requiring only a Fortran compiler. All routines are written for Fortran77, and are uncompiled. I found the software user manual to be useful, well thought out, and complete. A powerful tool at a bargain price!
