ABSTRACT Metrics are fundamental to quantify and classify the spatial dependence of soil and agricultural attributes. This study aimed to propose and validate metrics based on two distinct approaches, one additive, which considers the arithmetic mean of the vertical and horizontal components, and the other multiplicative, which considers the geometric mean of the vertical and horizontal components of the semivariogram. Furthermore, we intend to propose the classification of spatial dependence based on the categorization of these metrics. Finally, a function […]
