Ellipsoid or geometric anisotropy is a widely used method in geostatistical analysis to obtain variograms with different ranges directions (azimuth) and relatively similar sill variance. indispensable mining when resource geologist intends understand the spatial continuity of variables related any geological controls mineralization. For example, dealing mineralization tabular deposits, porphyri...

In this paper, we establish some recurrence relations for single and product moments of generalized order statistics from pth order exponential distribution. Further the results are deduced for the recurrence relations of record values and ordinary order statistics and using a recurrence relation for single moments we obtain characterization of pth order exponential distribution.

abstract information about the spatial patterns of soil biodiversity is limited though required, e.g. for understanding effects of biodiversity on ecosystem processes. this study was conducted to determine whether soil macrofauna biodiversity parameters display spatial patterns in the riparian forest landscape of karkhe. soil macrofauna were sampled using 200 sampling point along parallel trans...

A Bayesian analysis is used to detect a change-point in a sequence of independent random variables from exponential distributions. In This paper, we try to estimate change point which occurs in any sequence of independent exponential observations. The Bayes estimators are derived for change point, the rate of exponential distribution before shift and the rate of exponential distribution after s...

The paper briefly reviews the concept of the variogram and the estimation error variance in connection with certain estimation problems. This is done in the context of their development in mineralogy. The results are then placed in the context of the assessment of flowing product streams that are continuous space, continuous time stochastic processes. The work in this area, to date, is then bri...

In this paper we consider the estimation of the variogram using the method of weighted least squares and in the process we propose two alternative set of weights. We study the asymptotic sampling properties of these estimators and compare their efficiencies both analytically and through simulations. To illustrate the above methods, we consider daily rainfall across Switzerland measured at 467 l...

Randommeasurement errors in digital terrain models are important to their quality. The present paper describes an untypical use of variograms to compute this kind of measurement errors. After subtracting a low frequency drift from depth/height measurements, a variogram analysis of the residuals is used to derive the random measurement errors of the observations. Numerical experiments on laserca...

Soil macrofauna play major roles in ecosystem functioning; however the ecological effects of macrofauna are influenced by their spatial distribution. Close relationships to soil properties are one major factor for determining spatial pattern of macrofauna. Information about macrofauna distribution pattern is scarce especially at regional scales. The limited numbers of studies available suggest ...
