Dear Ina Teutsch, Ralf Weisse, Jens Moeller, and Oliver Krueger,

Thank you for the submission of your manuscript “A Statistical Analysis of Rogue Waves in the Southern North Sea”.

As you know, two reviewers have now provided detailed reviews, which you have replied in detail to. Both reviewers recommended from minor to moderate revisions and therefore I would like to invite you to submit a revised version of your manuscript.

Would you please also provide an ‘author’s reply’ to the reviewers (feel free to use the same words that you used in what you have already uploaded) and include, in the same author reply document, a track changes document between the old manuscript and the new one.

I look forward to seeing the next version of your manuscript!

Regards,
Ira Didenkulova
NHESS Editor
