Fig. 6.19 Hypothetical autocorrelation function consisting of two negative exponentials to
incorporate nugget effect over short lag distances

nugget effect is superimposed on negative exponential curve for distances h

and this is significantly larger than 0.56 predicted by the negative exponential curve
shown in Fig.
6.16a
. Although this result is based on relatively few data and the two
half-samples were adjoining, it strongly suggests that autocorrelation close to the
origin is not adequately described by the curve shown in Fig.
