The book titled ”GEOSTATISTICS FOR BEGINNERS” deals with basics of Geostatistics ie it deals with Regionalised Variables, which have spatial distribution and spatial correlation. Variability of the variable does not depend on the location but depends on the distance between the samples. This is the concept of VARIOGRAM. I have tried to answer three basic questions: What is Geostatistics? When to apply Geostatistics? How to apply Geostatistics? More emphasis has been laid, on the logic, required to be fed into the computer programmes, for solving various problems. By this approach, cumbersome mathematical formulae have been avoided to the extent possible, with an idea to generate interest of the reader even for a beginner, in the state of the art technique of Geostatistics. Scope of the book has been restricted to Linear Geostatistics and Simulation with only passing remarks to Nonlinear Geostatistics, and other recently developed new advanced techniques have been purposely avoided. I hope this book Geostatistics for Beginners, will generate an interest in youngsters, for the advancement of the technique, in the country.
