+++ %MJK The line just before 2.3.1 can now be deleted +++ %MJK Further, $\overline{\FF}_{\rm K}=\overline{\FF}_{\rm M}=\bm 0$, that is, the forcings are pure fluctuations. %MR: But now the statement \mean{F_{K,M}}=0 is somehow scattered. Shouldn't we say it once and for all at the earliest % possible moment, that is when the mean is introduced? %MJK If you want! I do not see a need for it. p. 8, left col.. [l. 2: "exceeds the corresponding fluctuations in α" [How would we compare?] %MJK We discussed this already before. It IS a bit questionable to compare magnitudes %MJK of alphas to etas, but now we at least compare normalized values, which should bear %MJK some significance. The point here is that alpha fluctuations should be zero, and %MJK hence mark the "noise" level, and that is why it is important to say that the eta %MJK values exceed the noise level. We do have the error bars, of course, but I would %MJK still think it is good to mention this. %MR: Can't we compare \alpha and \eta k_z? %MJK This we also discussed in length [the normalization of alpha_rms and eta_rms in the tables]. %MJK Now it is far too late to change this. %MJK We have more rigorous comparison with the 0D model then, and most, if not all, conclusions are %MJK anyways based on those. %MJK I would leave it. [l. 6: "α values are similar or a bit larger, and clearly exceed the η_yx component" How to compare?] %MJK See my comment above. Now important to say from the perspective that eta_yx is very small. %MJK See my comment above. p. 14: right col., [l. 3: m=2 self explaining?] %MJK I would think so. Make a suggestion how to improve! %MR: A suggestion is not so easy. That's why I asked. If we agree that it is self-explaining we leave it as it is. %MJK We leave it then? %MR: Perhaps we ask Axel. p. 15: Table 4: don't inflate to full width [Run SKM1a007 not explained] %MJK It is, indeed, missing from Table 2. I wonder why. This would be a question to Javier, but we will not get an answer, unfortunately. %MJK I will try to search for the data, but I think it is bad to start adding entries to the data table at proofs. We should maybe %MJK explain it off otherwise. It is obviously a run very close to 008 and 006 that are in the table. %MJK Found the data and could compute the numbers with the 'ju' method SKM1a007 & $-$0.649 &2.077$\pm$0.025 &2.051$\pm$0.007 &0.120$\pm$0.018 &$-$0.177$\pm$0.024 &0.091$\pm$0.027 &0.173$\pm$0.068 \\%SMK1a007 in Puhti %MJK Do we want to add this or not at proofs? %MR: Perhaps not in a Table, but somehow describing the run would be good. %MJK It is not included in the plots, hence I would leave it out from the table... I cannot remember why it was not included in the plots... %MJK irritating... Maybe I could still add it to Fig. 4... I will keep thinking about this... MR: A proposal for this: p. 15, left col., l. 2: "Run SKM1a007" -> "the representative Run SKM1a007" Table 4: add "Notes: Standard forcing with $\kf/k_1=5$, $\ShK=-0.649$, $\Pm=1$, ${\cal A} = 1$, $\Rm = ...$." %MJK I now added it to the Table 2. I will try to add the data point to Figure 4 as well, as we have now the opportunity to replace those figures. %MJK The rest concerns with Matthias appendix.
