The 2010 John Cedric Griffiths Award: Ana Fernandez Militino

摘要

I feel honoured and pleased to give this iaudatio on the occasion of The John Cedric Griffiths 2010 Award granted to Professor Ana Fernandez Militino for her outstanding teaching in the area of Geostatistics. For decades, Ana has tirelessly dedicated herself to teaching and conducting research on various areas of Statistics at the Universidad Publica de Navarra in Spain, and other universities, conferences and workshops. Her first book, in collaboration with Lola Ugarte, on Probability and Statistics in Spanish was born from this intensive work. Its examples were written in SPlus, the predecessor of the R language. For all of us, people who have Spanish as native language, this book became an invaluable tool for our everyday teaching. The new book, this time in English and R, outweighed the first because of the many and interesting exercises and other subjects added. 10.1016/j.cageo.2011.08.014
