Reviewer 2 Report
The topic and objective of the study are relevant and important in current situations. The methods that are used to analyze the data are appropriate. On that account, this paper would deserve to get published, although not in its present form which does not meet the standards for being published in Sustainability Journal. I find the authors' presentation and approach to be confusing and lacking important details. The motivation and hypotheses are also unclear. I have several concerns/questions, as listed below, that I think should be taken into consideration before the paper is accepted.
· The text is a little heavy and confusing sometimes and has several grammatical and English problems throughout the paper. The authors should try to shorten the text wherever possible. I strongly recommend authors to have the manuscript reviewed and checked by a native English speaker.
· Please consider expanding the Introduction section with more research-related background and previous studies.
· The conclusion section should clearly highlight the major findings, overall contribution of the current study, limitations, future directions, and applicability of the current study in regions around the world and how it benefits the water managers.

Reviewer 3 Report
Dear Editor
The authors relied on short paragraphs, and this is somewhat boring, and the formulation of sentences is difficult to understand for non-native speakers of English, so please do linguistic development for the research. Also, there are many sentences in the text that need references, so appropriate and recent references must be added

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Dear Authors, In my earlier comments, I was advised you to rewrite the back ground of the study again.
Still now you didn't do any thing upon it. The background/ Introduction/ is not well written and not describing your title /work/
You have to rewrite it again!
Next to this, i was advised you to modify your methodology part. It is full of literature review and NOT look like even a method. Still the problem is not solved

Dear reviewer!
The article presents the extended review of the literature on methods for evaluating the sustainability of biological systems. We have also added a review of methods for evaluating the sustainability of development of biological systems previously developed by the team of authors.
