Dear authors,

You have thoroughly addressed the reviewers’ comments, and the manuscript is clearly of relevance for TC. Please submit a revised manuscript for further revision.

Best regards,
Alex

Dear Authors,

I find only minor improvements necessary in the manuscript before publication. However, many small typographical errors were present. I have found some of them, but I would recommend another careful reading. Also note, that I did not check the SI for English. I look forward to your submission of a revised version.

Best regards,
Alex

L81: simulations => simulation

L81: between PISM => between the PISM

L99: Ensemble parameter => Ensemble parameters

L102: Confusing: “The selected parameters passed the two main criteria and …”. What are the two main criteria, have they been defined already? Or perhaps is the “and” a typo?

L174: location => locations

L179: to model grid => to the model grid

Fig. 7: I believe the color-legend should be unitless, not in “[m]”.

L379: during ACR period => during the ACR period

L416: parameter => parameter values

L429: Typo “estinate fo”

L432: really => very

L466: At last glacial maximum => At the Last Glacial Maximum [Should this be “During the deglaciation”?]

L470-471: Same comment as above.

L478-481: Confusing as written, please revise.

L485: Discharge and melting should be positive quantities here, I believe.

L499-500: Discharge and melting should be positive quantities here, I believe.

Fig. 16: It would be more intuitive for the panel year labels to be chronological (e.g., 10-8 kyr BP instead of 8-10 kyr BP).

L510: parameters => parameter

L511: whole => all of

L512-513: Use of semi-colon is confusing here. Perhaps an “and”?

L518: for instance climatic forcing => climate forcing, for instance,

L527: a erosion => an erosion

L533: Remove parentheses around citation.

L545: small ESIA => small ESIA values

L557: As => As the

L573: which in first order => which, to the first order,

L580: Typo “. the”

L582: One could argue that the scaling of ocean temperatures to atmospheric temperatures (of ~0.4) could be quite uncertain. Perhaps you could add a sentence here as to why you did not choose to vary this parameter?

L589: rather wide => to be rather broad

L610: reconstruction => reconstructions

L621: can not => cannot

L631: Strongest => The strongest

L632: most pronounced => the most pronounced

L632: Grounding => The grounding

L656: grounding line retreat => grounding-line retreat

L666: a extensive => an extensive

L668: The here presented paleo simulation ensemble analysis => The paleo-simulation ensemble analysis presented here

L668: “with PISM” doesn’t fit well, please rephrase.

Dear authors,

Your revision is almost ready for publication. See only the minor additional changes to be made below:

Title: Glacial cycles simulation => Glacial cycle simulations [As with the companion paper]

L570: assistence => assistance
