Variance usually increases with distance apart of measurements.
Range & Sill : variance levels off (the sill) beyond a certain distance (the range) beyond which observations appear independent.
Nugget Variance : When a variogram is extrapolated back to zero distance, it may approach a non-zero variance. The amount by which the variance differs from zero is known as the nugget variance.
