The variance of the residuals (whether regression or kriging) is the sum of the squared residuals divided by the degrees of freedom. Since the "degrees of freedom" is a fixed number, minimising the variance is identical to minimising the sum of squared residuals.

Is minimizing the sum of the square of the the residuals equal to the minimizationof the variance of the residuals? Can we get any intuitive meaning from the relationshipbetween the sum of the squares and the variance?
