Since October 1975 and the first NATO ASl "Geostat - Roma 1975", there has not been an advanced workshop on geostatistics where experts from throughout the world could meet, teach and debate without the pressure of an ordinary professional conference. This second NATO ASI "Geostat - Tahoe 1983" was intended as a high-level teaching activity yet opened to all new ideas and contributions to the discipline of geostatistics. It was expected that the institute would bridge the gap since "Geostat - Roma 1975" and establish the state of the art of the discipline as of 1983.
"Geostat - Tahoe 1983" fulfilled all expectations. The institute, held in September 1983 at the Stanford Sierra Lodge near Lake Tahoe, California, was attended by all major players in the field, representing evenly the academy and the industry of 23 different countries. Twelve guest lecturers were backed by some 50 original contributions. Particularly important for the future was the active participation of graduate students, glvlng evidence of the dynamism of a still very young discipline.
Applications of geostatistics are no longer limited to the mining industry, and the original scope of the ASI had to be widened to witness the progress made in such fields as hydrology, soil sciences, pollution control and geotechnical engineering. Also important was the cross-fertilization from oiher statistical branches such as spectral analysis and robust statistics.
The NATO ASI "Geostat - Tahoe 1983" will be remembered as a major milestone in the development of the discipline. I invite all of you who did not make it to the ASI to dive into these proceedings and share a bit of the excitement that pervaded this summer's end at Lake Tahoe.
