[R-sig-Geo] quick question re: fit.variogram in gstat

[Kerry Ritter]

Hi all. I have what I hope is a quick question concerning the use of 
"fit.variogram" in"gstat".  If you assume a a Spherical model for the 
variogram and the estimated range is say 200m and then you switch models 
to a Gaussian but want to keep the range fixed at 200m, would you 
specify 200 for the range parameter or 200/sqrt(3)?

Thanks,
Kerry
