Dear Authors,

having read the reviews and your corresponding responses, I am very satisfied that all the concerns have been addressed, in particular the ones that relate to the initial absence of discussion in the manuscript of the impact of errors in the input datasets. In addition, the manuscript is more clear in its organization, and the addition of some of figures relating to the methodology itself has improved the manuscript. I would however like to see a reduction of the number of figures, which stands much too large right now. I would be more confortable with a count approximately at 10. I will leave discretion to the authors on which figures should go, or which ones could be merged to reduce the count.

I will carry out an editor review on the manuscript to assess these changes, and will push the manuscript for final publication once I'm satisfied the figures are highly response to the manuscript itself.

Best regards,

Eric Larour

Dear Authors,

I agree with the reduced number of figures, and the ones you chose to retain. I believe the manuscript is better for it, and the changes to the manuscript in terms of making the text a little bit more succinct are also good. I am therefore accepting this publication as is. Thank you again for your submission!

Best regards,

Eric Larour, TC Editor
