Reviewer 2 Report
The article presents valuable research, well-adopted methods and results responding to the research material and methods. I do not have to this aspect of the article any objectives.
What could to be mentioned:
The series of maps on figures are nice, surely seriously developed, but in this form of presentation, their content is quite hard to follow. Probably less figures would show the cote of the problem more explanatory.
Probably not all of the cited literature is really connected to the confirmation of the matters analysed in the article. I do not think that just formal mentioning of big number of literature, which concerns the topic only marginally, increases the quality of article.
