units for spatial range in stvariogram gstat

Dear All,
I have question concerning the unit of measurement for the range parameter
in the fit.stvariogram in gstat, i have fitted the following spatio
temporal variogram for data on monthly averages pf pm10 and the longitude
and latitude are in decimel format
SpatialPoints:
     longitude latitude
1     30.92500 29.95300
61    31.36000 30.26000
121   31.33300 29.84720
 and this is the commands for fitting the variogram
variogramST(lnpm10only~1,data=lnpm10_stfdf,cutoff=0.8,assumeRegular=T,na.omit=T)
nugget=0),time = vgm(psill=500,"Mat", range=50, nugget=0,kappa=0.3), joint
= vgm(psill=10,"Mat", range=100, nugget=1), stAni=200)
method="L-BFGS-B",lower=pars.l,upper=pars.u)
