Goovaerts, regarding the factorial kriging you mentioned below...is it possible to filter the micro component (nugget effect) from our spatial model? Because the magnitude of nugget effect is related to the magnitude of variance error as well. Thank you.

You can use the same filter size but different kriging weights depending on whether you want to estimate the local or regional scales of variability.
