The distance at which the variogram levels off at its plateau value. This reflects the classical geologic concept of an area of influence. Beyond this distance of separation, sample pairs no longer correlate with one another and become independent. Sill (C+ Co). The value at which the variogram function plateaus. For all practical purposes, the sill is equal to the variance of all samples used to compute the variogram.
