Practical range spatial dependency- Exponential variogram model

Dear All, An exponential model is fitted to empirical semivariogram using *gstat of R package*. The variogram parameters obtained is model psill range 1 Nug 0.04281109 0.00000 2 Exp 0.76810071 5.45954 where the nugget effect is 0.04, sill is approximately 0.80, and range is 5.5. Since exponential model approaches the sill asymptotically, its practical range of spatial dependency is reported by literature to be distance at which the semivariance is 95% of the sill. Having obtained 5.5 as my range from the analysis, how do I estimate the practical range at 95% of sill?
3 * range:
1-exp(-3)
[1] 0.9502129 which can be confirmed by:
variogramLine(vgm(1, "Exp", 1), dist_vector = 3)
dist gamma 1 3 0.9502129
Thank you. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
