Magnetometric Surveys for the Non-Invasive Surface and Subsurface Interpretation of Volcanic Structures in Planetary Exploration, a Case Study of Several Volcanoes in the Iberian Peninsula

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The methods of magnetometric survey are very commonly used on Earth and this manuscript tried to prove the possible applications on planetary body. I am very interested on this methodology. The revision has added an appropriate introduction and discussion. I would like to agree with the publication.

Reviewer 2 Report

The manuscript makes an excellent impression, is written in good scientific language and is a complete serious study. In the Introduction, the authors provide a detailed review, the authors provide relevant and up-to-date information on the state of research. In the “Materials and Methods” section the analytical methods are fully described, the “Results" and "Discussion” are detailed. The Discussion and Summary reflect the main results of the research and fully reveal the intention and results of the future article. The abundance of figures helps to better understand the information and enhances the impression of the manuscript. The impressive list of references indicates a deep immersion into the study topic and fully reflects the current state of the study subject.

In general, the manuscript is suitable for publication in a journal. In my opinion the manuscript can be published after the error correction and careful checking references. It is also necessary to correct the manuscript according to journal requirements.

My comments are listed below:

1. Check all references to literature and arrange them in accordance with the requirements of the journal.
2. Almost all references (60 out of 93) are given in the Introduction. In the Discussion section, it is desirable to add 5-10 references to modern articles.

Correct the manuscript according to journal requirements.

We have gone through the reference list and have corrected the errors that you pinted out.

Additionally we have included 5 references to articules within the last 5 years concerning magnetic studies performed in the planetary context and on Earth as well as the future rotorcraft to be used in the exploration of Titan.

All corrections are highlighted in yellow.

We hope that this will fullfill your requirements of improvement.

With our best wishes,
