The authors construct a new flexible class of spatial models using nested stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE). This model class contains a wide family of covariance functions, including both the Matérn family and oscillating covariance functions, and it maintains all desirable properties of the Markov approximated Matérn model, such as computational efficiency, easy nonstationary extendibility and applicability to data on general smooth manifolds. The model class is used to estimate daily ozone maps using a large data set of spatially irregular global total column ozone data.
