This volume contains forty-one selected full-text contributions
from the Fourth European Conference on Geostatistics for
Environmental Applications, geoENV IV, held in Barcelona, Spain,
November 2002. 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. The papers are
organized in the following sections:
-Air pollution and satellite images,
-Ecology and environment,
-Hydrogeology,
-Climatology and rainfall,
-Oceanography,
-Soil science,
-Methodology. Applications of geostatistics vary from particle
matter analysis, land cover classification, space-time ozone
mapping, downscaling of precipitation, contaminant transport in the
subsurface, aquifer reclamation, analysis of Iberian hare or
phytoplankton abundance, coastal current patterns, to soil
pollution by heavy metals or dioxins. At the back of the book
nineteen posters presented at the congress are included.
The combination of full texts and posters provides a picture of the
tendencies that can presently be found in Europe regarding the
applications of geostatistics for environmentally related
problems.
Audience: After four 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 ofgreat interest and
practical value to geostatisticians working both in academia and in
industry.
