    This PhD thesis introduces innovative statistical frameworks for modeling and interpreting spatial and spatio-temporal dynamics in geostatistical data and point processes, with applications in air pollution monitoring and infectious disease dynamics. The first project focuses on spatial disaggregation of normally distributed multivariate geostatistical data, motivated by air pollution applications in Portugal and Italy. The second project extends spatial disaggregation to a spatio-temporal setting for univariate normally distributed data, with the methodology illustrated through the monitoring
