geoENV VI ¿ Geostatistics for Environmental Applications

Herausgegeben:Soares, Amílcar; Pereira, Maria João; Dimitrakopoulos, Roussos

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume contains ca. 40 selected full-text contributions from the Sixth European Conference on Geostatistics for Environmental Applications, geoENV VI, held in Rhodes, Greece, October 25-26, 2006. The objective of the editors was to compile a set of papers from which the reader could perceive how geostatistics is applied within the environmental sciences. A few selected theoretical contributions are also included.

Audience: After six editions the geoENV Congress Series has established itself as a 'must' to all scientists working in the field of geostatistics for environmental applications. Each geoENV congress covers the developments which have occurred during the preceding two years, but always with a highly applied focus. It is precisely this focus on the applications to environmental sciences which makes the geoENV volumes unique and of great interest and practical value to geostatisticians working both in academia and in industry.
