Linear geostatistics is a fast developing field of research and its principles are extended over other fields of activity. Tools such as the variogram and kriging are now in everyday use for estimating the mean grade of material in an area from values achieved from measured samples. Non-linear geostatistics is at the fore-front of statistical development, it has a potential application over a wide range of practical problems and is likely to occupy an important place in the statutory monitoring and control of air, water, and land pollution. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the field for geographers and engineers.
