Book excerpt: The principal purpose of this ETL is to introduce the reader to geostatistical techniques and to demonstrate their basic utility with respect to HTRW site investigations. The ETL also will include a discussion of statistical concepts that support the science of geostatistics. Practical aspects of geostatistical techniques will be discussed in two ways, First, practical references will be made, when appropriate, during the discussion of statistical concepts, and second, examples describing several aspects of the use of geostatistical techniques in HTRW site investigations will be presented and discussed in a section of this ETL specifically dedicated to providing working examples. This ETL also will include a brief literature and software review; review of geostatistical applications; comparison of information that is generated with geostatistical methods to that information obtained using classical statistical methods; and some more recent geostatistical methods, such as conditional simulation.
