Abstract

A recent paper by Masser and Scheurwater (1980) favoured the adoption of the intramax procedure for functional regionalization, without satisfactorily investigating the independent effects of the approach of the procedure to standardization and to clustering. From an examination of these phases of the intramax procedure it is shown that the superiority of Masser and Scheurwater's approach is based on doubtful criteria.
