CO2 Emissions Induced by Vehicles Cruising for Empty Parking Spaces in an Open Parking Lot
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
excess o cruising or excess CO2 emissions are not highlighted only summaries of collected data
the relationship between excess cruising and non-optimal cruising is unclear
figure 10 presents distances but on which axis are the values presented?
area of 320 km, maybe square kilometers?
CO2 show be used not CO2
description of sections of the editor should be deleted

Reviewer 2 Report
My comment on the manuscript entitled CO2 emissions induced by vehicles cruising for empty parking spaces in an open parking lot as follows: 1. The writing of the manuscript. There are a many incomplete sentences or sentences without subjects. 2. Abstract is the paper’s key; Rewrite the Abstract part to be more meaningful for the readers. I suggest to be Problem, Aim, Methods, Results, and Conclusion. 3. The problems of this work are not clearly stated. There is ambiguity in statement understanding. 4. Add main contributions list as points in the Introduction section with more highlighted the details. 5. The authors should highlight shortcomings of the existing solutions in the related work section. 6. Explain what kind of simulations will be provided in Section 4 at the beginning of the section. 7. The proposal does not present information so that the application can be reproduced by readers.Author Response

Reviewer 3 Report
Dear Authors,
The article presented by you presents a very interesting solution - needed at the current time, when environmental protection is on the top. The research concept is correct, the introduction is written correctly and logically.
However, a very big problem may be the CO2 value determined by you in accordance with the formula no. 1 (line 399) - hence there are questions and ambiguities. Maybe it is worth referring to the tests of individual vehicles and determining their CO2 emissions under different conditions of vehicle use?
Does your method recognize a specific vehicle model? unfortunately, the variation in CO2 emissions from different vehicles varies greatly.
I think this should be corrected and completed in your manuscript. This will eliminate unnecessary questions and doubts by the readers.
Best regards
