In recent years spatial statistics has been widely applied in diverse areas such as climatology, ecology, economy, epidemiology, image analysis, etc. This volume illustrates the main spatial models and the current statistical methods for point-referenced, areal data and point pattern data with an emphasis on recent simulation techniques such as MCMC algorithms. The presentation is concise but mathematically rigorous and the proposed methods are illustrated using real data and the software R. Some exercises complete each chapter. The volume is accessible for senior undergraduate students, Ph.D. students in statistics, and experienced statisticians. Moreover researchers in the above mentioned areas will find it useful as a mathematically sound reference.
