My tuppence worth. The major advantages of simulation as a risk assessment tool lie in the cases where you are trying to derive some conclusion from the data rather than just look at the values themselves.
For example, see Bill and my papers at Battelle Conference 1987 or the paper at the Geostat Avignon in 1988. There are oters. All of these are available in Word format for download at my page http://uk.geocities.com/drisobelclark/resume/Publications.html We were trying to derive the travel path of a particle given the pressure of fluid in an aquifer. Not a linear transform by anyone's standards. Isobel Clark __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
