Rajni,
you generally do not need to detrend if using ordinary kriging (or other linear weighted average estimator) in the interpolation case, i.e., when the points you're estimating are surrounded by data in (generally) all sides, and particularly in the direction(s) of the trend. Also, a relatively small neighborhood should be used (generally less than the variogram ranges; as opposed to large neighborhoods or on at all). In such case, universal kriging or IRF-k would not give you any additional advantage.

One possibel reference is   Journel, A.G., and Rossi, M.E., "When Do We Need A Trend Model?", Journal of Mathematical Geology, Vol. 22, No. 8, 1989.
 
Another could be  Rossi, M.E., and Posa, D., "Stationary and Non‑stationary Kriging Applied to Dissolved Oxygen Data", Metron‑International Journal of Statistics, Vol. 47, No 1‑4, 1989, Rome.
 
Cheers,
 
 
Mario

Dear List,
I have a querry again.
In what cases can we avoid the detrending of the piezometric data
sets. Is it always necessary to go for detrending the data?
could you please provide me the references too.
thanks to all
Rajni
