I would like to thank the reviewers for their thorough evaluation of the manuscript and the authors for their detailed replies to the reviewers' comments. Hereby I invite the authors to revise the manuscript according to their proposed modifications. Once the revised version has been submitted, I will ask the reviewers to assess whether their comments have been addressed sufficiently.

I would like to thank the reviewers for their feedback and the authors for having thoroughly implemented the reviewers' suggestions.

Both reviewers suggest accepting the manuscript and I am happy to do this now. However, one of the reviewer suggests implementing a few minor technical corrections. I would like to ask the authors to address them, together with a few technical remarks from my side (see below).

best wishes, Horst

Line 36: I believe the original passive form of the citation was correct.

Caption of Fig. 1: To optimize clarity I suggest to change "The black contour lines indicate the surface elevation every 500 m" to "The black contour lines indicate the ice sheet surface elevation every 500 m...". This because (bedrock) surface elevation is shown in Fig. 1b but visualized differently. The same is the case for Figs. 3. and 7.
