TLDR
In this paper, measures of Dispersion Quadrat Analysis (MDA) and Dispersion Distance Methods Methods of Arrangements (MDF) are presented. But they do not consider the relationship between the distance and the dispersion distance.Abstract:

An adaptive inverse-distance weighting spatial interpolation technique
George Y. Lu,David Wong +1 more
TL;DR: Adaptive IDW performs better than the constant parameter method in most cases, and better than ordinary kriging in one of the authors' empirical studies when the spatial structure in the data could not be modeled effectively by typical variogram functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial point pattern analysis and its application in geographical epidemiology
TL;DR: Methods for exploring spatial variation in disease risk, spatial and space-time clustering, and the raised incidence of disease around suspected point sources of pollution are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finding the right pixel size
TL;DR: This paper discusses empirical and analytical rules to select a suitable grid resolution for output maps and based on the inherent properties of the input data to derive the true optimal grid resolution that maximizes the predictive capabilities or information content of a map.
Book
A Practical Guide to Geostatistical Mapping
TL;DR: This book will first introduce the basic principles of geostatistical mapping and regression-kriging, as the key prediction technique, then guide you through software tools — R+gstat/geoR, SAGA GIS and Google Earth — which will be used to prepare the data, run analysis and make final layouts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlling the False Discovery Rate: A New Application to Account for Multiple and Dependent Tests in Local Statistics of Spatial Association
TL;DR: In this article, a new criterion, the false discovery rate (FDR), was proposed to control the proportion of false declarations of significance among those individual deviations from null hypotheses considered to be significant.

Notes on continuous stochastic phenomena.
TL;DR: Two problems arising in the two and three-dimensional cases of stochastic phenomena which are distributed in space of two or more dimensions are considered.

Distance to Nearest Neighbor as a Measure of Spatial Relationships in Populations
Philip J. Clark,Francis C. Evans +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the vulnerability of several species to trapping on the islands and found that the islands appeared to lag behind the mainland in the development of their populations and the populations of small mammals fluctuate quite widely and the several populations appear to be somewhat independent of each other.

Locational Analysis in Human Geography
John Kolars,Peter Haggett +1 more
TL;DR: Locational analysis in human geography has been studied extensively in the literature, see as discussed by the authors for an overview. But this paper is different from previous work: http://www.locationalanalysisinhumangeography.org/

An Introduction to Mathematical Ecology.
Mark Williamson,E. C. Pielou +1 more
TL;DR: The book is chiefly concerned with ecological models; it includes chapters on measurement and ordination of field data, but not examples of applications to actual populations or communities.
