Round 2

Reviewer 2 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

I appreciate the author’s response to my previous comments and acknowledge that most of my concerns have been addressed. I also understand the rationale behind using the L-4 product. However, two of the three reasons provided in the response are technically inaccurate. First, the skin sea surface temperature (SST) L2 product corresponds to a depth similar to that of the ASV sampling. Second, a comparison between L-3 and L-4 products is not appropriate for a comparison between L-2 and L-4 data. While a direct comparison between L-2 SST and ASV measurements would have been ideal, I accept the analysis based on L-4 and ASV data as a reasonable alternative.
