Abstract
Covariance functions and variograms play a fundamental role in
exploratory analysis and statistical modelling of spatial and spatio-temporal
datasets. In this paper, we construct a new class of spatial covariance functions
using the Fourier transform of some higher-order kernels. Moreover,
we extend this class of spatial covariance functions to the spatio-temporal
setting using the idea used in Ma (2003)
