Thanks a lot for your critical review. This improves the paper so much!
Hi @mabesa,
Thank you for addressing my comments. I read through the latest version of the paper and I think it improved a lot. Some minor typos I noticed in the paper:
I may not capture every typo. I suggest carefully read through the paper to make sure there are no typos and everything reads good. Thank you.
Thank you, I got the notification and found yet another couple of typos! I'm sure there will be more, I've read the text about 4 times today and still I find spelling errors.
Hi @mabesa,
I have few feedback on the software paper for JOSS https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/4805
Title - the title misleads the reader to believe this package performs some sort of hydrological modeling. However, the package mainly facilitates data preparation and processing. Please refine the title to reflect the package's actual functionality.
Line 8 - please be consistent and use either "modelling" or "modeling", not both.
Statement of need
riversCentralAsia
package, which could mislead readers on the package functionality. For example, I believe "delineation of river catchment boundaries" is processed in QGIS. Please revise the paragraph and focus on what functions this package can deliver.doQuantileMapping
function. I am not quite sure if this function fits the concept of "downscaling" because the function is more like bias-correction. Also, downscaling can include spatial and temporal downscaling.Installation - could you include the R version (>= 4.1) requirement for this package? Or at least add this requirement to the Github Page.
Figure 1 - some abbreviations are not explained in the figure or paper (e.g., GSM).
