dear authors,

after looking at the reports by the two anonymous referees and at the submitted manuscript, I am pleased to inform you that the paper has been deemed potentially suitable for publication in the journal, provided that you agree in incorporating some minor changes and amendments, as highlighted in the reviewer's letters and the attached material.

So, please try to reply as soon as possible with a point-by-point document where you will reply to each reviewer's comment and by submitting a revised manuscript that highlights all the changes made.
I trust that, in case all the responses are included and satisfactory, we won't need a second review round and that I will personally see at the second stage, that I hope will be successful.

Thanks for submitting to NHESS,

best regards
FC
