This study aimed to use the share parameters of the geo-statistical models applied to maximum likelihood estimators to predict the volumes per hectare in three fragments of a Deciduous Forest located in Santa Teresa, RS state, employing the ‘Borrow Strength’ approach. Data were collected in 56 sampling units (S.U) of variable sizes with approximately 250 m 2 for a total of nine ha, distributed in a systematic grid of 40 x 40 m. Dendrometric variables from individuals with DBH ≥ 10 cm near the center of the S.U. were measured. Two approaches to the data set were prepared, the first of which considering both areas entirely independent themselves, subdivided into two types: a fit to non-spatial model (NSM) and a fit to the maximum likelihood (ML) not shared (individual adjustment) model. The second approach described the adjustment of the shared as a function of random error or nugget, comprising models: a shared model without fixed nugget (variability between S.U) and a shared model with fixed nugget (variability within S.U) models, using a logarithmic function of M.L applied to the Matern family of exponential correlation model. Then, the models were compared using Akaike information criterion (AIC) and by degree of spatial dependence for subsequent preparation of both kriging and prediction surfaces of the selected models. It was observed that the combined volume models to estimate values were higher for the AIC values and spatial dependence with respect to the adjustments for the individual areas. Among the shared models, it was observed that there was a gain in the parameter estimates using the fixed nugget, which resulted in a higher correlation of samples and spatial dependence (AP = 88 m), than the shared models without the fixed nugget (AP = 75 and 66 m). The AIC was efficient because it compared the different levels of proposed adjustments to the methodology of the study, selecting a model with parsimony and compatible with the spatial distribution patterns found in the areas. The use of combined models for data sampling in different areas with the introduction of the error estimate intra-plot (fixed nugget) in the equations of MV can be suggested to increase the correlation between the S.U and combined evaluation of the AIC plus the degree of spatial dependence in estimating dendrometric variables.
