The author, Jeff Caers, is a Professor of Geological Sciences at Stanford University, California, USA. Prof. Caers’ is a world expert in geostatistics, spatial modeling and modeling uncertainty applied to subsurface characterization for hydrocarbon reservoirs as well as ground water systems. He is intimately familiar with real-world problems and directs the Stanford Center for Reservoir Forecasting, a research program in reservoir modeling and geostatistics with ~20 partners from the Energy Industry. His experience with teaching in an academic setting, and working with professionals shines throughout the book and its case studies

I am particularly pleased to see that teaching material associated with the textbook is available for any reader or teacher on GitHub: https://github.com/SCRFpublic/Modeling-uncertainty-in-the-Earth-Sciences Five labs are precisely documented and give hands-on practice with decision making in view of uncertainty, variograms and sensitivity analysis.
