Dear R-sig-Geo members, a semivariogram for spatial soil data, calculated by the gls (nlme library) function gives the following estimates:
> lmm.dap2b <- gls(Dap.sa ~ 1 + ID.sitio, Pd2006mm, > correlation=corGaus(form=~(easting.m+northing.m)|ID.sitio, nugget=TRUE, > metric="euclidean"), na.action=na.omit, method="REML") > Variogram(lmm.dap2b) variog dist n.pairs 1 0.3059585 2.828427 122 2 0.4040062 4.269282 125 3 0.5744688 18.110770 123 4 0.5266091 20.000000 125 .... whereas the variogram function of the gstat library gives, for similar distances (although different number of sample pairs), very different gamma values: > variogram(Dap.sa ~ 1, locations = ~ easting.m + northing.m, data=Pd2006mm, > cutoff=80) np dist gamma dir.hor dir.ver id 1 219 3.225693 0.005578128 0 0 var1 2 20 6.478671 0.004254656 0 0 var1 3 3 13.513045 0.009896324 0 0 var1 4 307 19.201322 0.009708390 0 0 var1 ..... Can anyone explain what is happening? Thanks for any advice, Guido Lorenz Can anyone explain _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
