The submitted manuscript revisions address the major concerns of the reviewers and the revised manuscript is acceptable for publication in The Cryosphere. While I agree with reviewer two that a single parameter perturbation would be ideal, I understand the complex coupling of climatic variables on tropical glaciers makes this approach unfeasible. The addition of the spider plot and additional text clarify the majority of the reviewers concerns and improve the quality of the manuscript significantly. I do apologize for the delay in finalizing the review of the manuscript. I was conducting fieldwork in Antarctica during most of November and December.
