1 month ago Hello Jin Zhang, It seems like you conducted a peer review just for the paper included in Professor's starter folder. I just pushed my draft to the repository, can you take a look and instead write a peer review for that? Thanks a lot.

Opening statement summary: This paper shows the sales and use of ferry tickets to Toronto Island, analyzing the data to find daily and seasonal patterns. These insights aim to improve ferry services and the experience for visitors.
Strong positive points:
The research uses detailed real-time data, providing valuable insights into ferry usage patterns. The analysis method is well explained, making good use of time series techniques.
Critical improvements needed:
The deep study could be enhanced by including external factors like weather or special events that could impact ferry usage. The current analysis does not analysis these variables, which could offer deeper insights.
Suggestions for improvement:
Consider combing weather data to see how it affects ferry ticket sales and redemptions. Analyzing the impact of special events or public holidays could further refine the understanding of peak times. Adding demographic information about passengers might reveal more about who uses the service and why.
Please consider adding/changing/removing:
Add analysis of weather conditions on ticket sales in the data section. Change the method section to include models that can handle external impacts like weather or events. Remove any redundant data that does not contribute significantly to the results. Include case studies or examples of similar analyses from other cities or ferry services. Provide a glossary of technical terms used in the analysis to make the paper more accessible to non-experts. Evaluation: The paper is well-structured and informative but could benefit significantly from a broader scope of analysis.

Estimated mark: 43/65
70 out of 100 (as of now)
Reason: While the analysis is comprehensive regarding the available data, integrating additional variables and considering external influences could provide a more complete graphs of the factors affecting ferry usage in Toronto.
