Recent developments on the construction of spatio-temporal covariance models

This paper briefly surveys some recent advances on how to construct spatio-temporal covariance functions, with the emphasis on the methods which can be used to derive covariance functions but not on a summary list of particular closed-form covariance functions. The advantages and shortcomings of some methods are discussed, and a number of proposals for future research are also suggested.
