Hi Pilar,

I think this list appropriate :). What would be a good idea is to get a 
book that describes kriging, some standard books are:

Chil?s, J. & Delfiner, P. Geostatistics: Modeling Spatial Uncertainty 
John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1999
Christensen, R. Plane Answers to Complex Questions: The Theory of Linear 
Models Springer, New York, 1996
Journel, A. & Huijbregts, C. Mining Geostatistics Academic Press., 1978

A more practical book would be the Applied Spatial Data Analysis in R, 
see http://www.asdar-book.org/ for more info.

On the web you could look at:

http://www.kriging.com/, Owned by Isobel Clark
http://spatial-analyst.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page, not sure if 
there is something here on  the theory of kriging.

For a description of kriging (quite mathematical) you can also look at a 
paper I wrote, you can download it from 
http://intamap.geo.uu.nl/~paul/Publications.html, it is the first one 
titled Read-time automatic...etc

This is all I could think of :).

cheers,
Paul

Hi,


In addition to the list provided by Paul, I would like to add

Geostatistics for Environmental Scientists, 2nd Edition
Richard Webster, Margaret A. Oliver 

I have used it in courses for agricultural and environmental engineers
and it worked well. I think that the balance between mathematical
complexity and applications is quite good.

Best,

Virgilio

Thanks you all!
I'll have a look and see if I can have access to the reference material you provided me!
Cheers
