Overview
While other works in the field of geostatistics have focused only on mining, this new book by Jeffrey Myers is the first to exclusively apply geostatistical tools to environmental problems. In addition, this unique resource offers a useful and imaginative new framework, known as Geostatistical Error Management (GEM), for environmental decision-making. GEM integrates the related areas of Data Quality Objectives, Sampling Theory and Practice, and geostatistics to create a complete set of tools for site assessment and decision-making. Using GEM, environmental specialists can more accurately characterize the extent and levels of contamination at hazardous waste or other environmentally impacted sites. Specific examples are used to elucidate topics and assist the practitioner in real-life situations.Book Details
