This partition was accomplished by examining the underlying geologic structures, the terrain texture, and the present rock types. In this study, we use adjusted versions of the provinces as potential categorical geospatial parameters for our amplification models. In the original physiographic provinces, three provinces cover a significantly larger land mass than the others (e.g. Atlantic Coastal Plain, the Central Lowlands, and the Great Plains). For these three provinces, we use physiographic sections to incorporate geologic and topographic differences that are not captured by the broader provinces and result in regions of approximately equal area.</span></span></p>
