Abstract: Covariance and variogram functions have been extensively studied in Euclidean space. In this article, we investigate the validity of commonly used covariance and variogram functions on the sphere. In particular, we show that the spherical and exponential models, as well as power variograms with 0On the Validity of Commonly Used Covariance and Variogram Functions on the Sphere
