These are important, indeed, goals of spatiotemporal systems modelling and data analysis introduced in a modern statistical framework by Christakos (1990, 1991a,b, 1992). Subsequent works include Goodall and Mardia (1994), Haas (1995), Bogaert (1996), Christakos and Hristopulos (1998), and Kyriakidis and Journel (1999). Among the more recent developments one should notice the works of Serre et al. (2003), Kolovos et al. (2002, 2004), Douaik et al. (2004), Christakos et al. (2002, 2005), Stein (2005), Law et al. (2006), Porcu et al. (2006, 2008), Yu et al. (2007a–c), Renshaw et al. (2008), and Ruiz-Medina et al.
