Description:
Statistical Methods for Spatial and Spatio-Temporal Data Analysis provides a complete range of spatio-temporal covariance functions and discusses ways of constructing them. This book is a unified approach to modeling spatial and spatio-temporal data together with significant developments in statistical methodology with applications in R. This book includes: -Methods for selecting valid covariance functions from the empirical counterparts that overcome the existing limitations of the traditional methods. -The most innovative developments in the different steps of the kriging process. -An up-to-date account of strategies for dealing with data evolving in space and time. -An accompanying website featuring R code and examples
