Geostatistical Simulation. Models and Algorithms

von Christian Lantuejoul Kategorie: Geologie ISBN: 3540422021 Kommentar abgeben

Kurzbeschreibung This book deals with the estimation of natural ressources using a Monte Carlo methodology. It includes a set of tools to describe the morphological, statistical and stereological properties of spatial random models. Furthermore the author presents a wide range of spatial models, including random sets and functions, point processes and object populations applicable to the geosciences. At the end a library of FORTRAN simulation programs is given. This book results from a series of courses given in the USA and Latin America to civil, mining and petroleum engineers as well as graduate students in statistics. It is the first book discussing the geostatistical simulation techniques in such a specific way. .

Umschlagtext Within the geoscience community the estimation of natural resources is a challenging topic. The difficulties are threefold: Intitially, the design of appropriate models to take account of the complexity of the variables of interest and their interactions. This book discusses a wide range of spatial models, including random sets and functions, point processes and object populations. Secondly,the construction of algorithms which reproduce the variability inherent in the models. Finally, the...
