Dear authors,

The manuscript lacks novelty and originality. Novelty is the primary criterion that a manuscript should have in order to be published to a scientific journal. The specific manuscript is not presenting anything new except for conventional methods.

The introduction should be more updated in the probabilistic assessment of vulnerability (see the references below). Also, there is little or no scientific added value in the presenting study, when more recent methods are already available.

Major revisions

The manuscript needs improvements
