Short summary
Some interesting questions were raised during the review process of a recent paper on a method for obtaining a fallen-block volume-frequency law, e.g. related to the minimum number of observations needed for obtaining the law. This brief communication addresses this point. In detail, the errors due to a reduced number of recorded fallen-block events and to the consistency of the measured blocks at the foot of the cliff are computed. This is useful for design purposes.
