This work had as objective to evaluate spatial variability of physical characteristics of a Typical Haplocambids (CX), under papaya culture, by means of the geostatistic. The analyzed area presented 43 sampling points , where soil samples were collected, in the layer of 0 ¿ 0.2 m. In the soil samples granulometry, soil bulk density, particles density, water content at tension of 0.03 and 1.5 MPa were measured. From these analyses the total porosity and water availability were calculated. Data were evaluated by descriptive statistics and by analysis of the spatial dependence based in semivariograms adjustment. The variation coefficient indicated low variability for total and coarse sand contents, water content at tension of 0.03 and 1.5 MPa, soil bulk and particles density and total porosity; and medium for clay, silt e available water contents. Except for water content at tension of 0.03 and 1.5 MPa and particles density, the other variables presented space dependence, being the spherical and exponential models adjusted to all the semivariograms. The nugget effect had small contribution in the data total variance, indicating strong spatial dependence for fine sand and clay contents, total porosity and available water. The other variables showed moderate dependence. There was a great variation in the distance until where the physical characteristics of the ground present spatial dependence (reach).
