Stationarity
The residual should have a constant variance
A variable with
no trend and
a residual with varying dispersion

Example Of Stationary And Nonstationary
Surfaces
Beware: Stationarity Is A Matter Of Scale!!!
Porosity log of well M-10x in the Dan Field (Almeida and Frykman, 1994)
The Basic Assumption Of Geostatistics
A geological variable z(x) is composed of a systematic
trend and a random component.
z(x) is the realization of a random function Z(x)
equal to the sum of a trend m(x) and of a random
stationary residual R(x) of mean 0:
Z (x) = R (x) + m (x)
But how can we calculate statistics from just
one outcome?
The Stationarity Assumption
Mean and variance are independent
of location:
Covariance between values at two
locations only depends on distance:
