Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Overall, this is an interesting paper on a very timely topic with a great depth of information and with good explanations of all assumptions.

The only comment is on the quality of the presentation: equations are oddly formatted (varying text sizes and numbering, some seem like screenshots). Also, the figure resolution is very low for most figures.

Author Response

Thank you for your helpful review and feedback. The paper has now been carefully looked over, resulting in re-formatting of equations (making text sizing more consistent), and increasing the resolution of most figures (including fig 3, fig 7, fig 9, fig 14 for instance).

Reviewer 2 Report
