Reviewer 1 Report

Dear editor of Land,

It should be necessary that a reviewer with more experience in the analysis carried out (Bartlett’s test of sphericity…) perform a detailed revision of this part. The tables do not seem easy to understand…

Other comments to the authors are the following:

Sometimes e.g. is written without comma after point. Please check, all of them must be written with comma: e.g., (and the same for i.e.,)

The figure 1 is good, but is too general. I would add a more detailed map for each park in the same figure: A) General view, B) Detailed view of…

The table 4 shows different font size please use the same.

In figure 3, it would be appropriate to put a detail of the posters under each image and add A, B and C…

IMPORTANT: There is no conclusion section?? Please, add concussions

The references must be checked, each “DOI” is written in a different way (cursive…), I think that the editors add a [CrossRef] in each case.

Other comments or corrections are highlighted and commented in the attached PDF.

 

Thank you,

Reviewer 2 Report

This paper explores how to raise awareness of visitors of national parks in US about the importance of proper waste disposal. The study consists of two parts - survey which provides an adequate way of creating messages to the visitors and quasi-experimental part which explores the effects of these messages. I believe that this is a valuable research that brings something new and interesting to the topic of waste management. It is easy to follow and straightforward in its contribution.
