Many methods for modelling spatial processes assume global smoothness properties; such assumptions are often violated in practice. We introduce a method for modelling spatial processes that display heterogeneity or contain discontinuities.…

Unlike other schemes that locally violate the essential stability properties of the analytic parabolic and elliptic problems, Voronoi finite volume methods (FVM) and boundary conforming Delaunay meshes provide good approximation of the…
