The Analysis of Present and Future Use of Non-Conventional Water Resources in Heilongjiang Province, China

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report (Previous Reviewer 1)

Your response seems too brief. Although you have annotated your modifications within the text, you still need to briefly describe your changes in the review comments for our review. The sections on methodology explanation and result validation still need improvement. Additionally, the formatting of your text is still quite poor, with multiple instances of inconsistent formatting. Further careful review and editing of the article are needed.

 Here are our major comments:

1)          In lines 95-98 of P2, the statement "The control group..." mentions various treatment methods without specifying how these methods differ from previous research methods, what problem they aim to address, and it doesn't clarify the full names of abbreviations such as DEMATEL, BP, GA, PSO, which appear for the first time.

2)          The title in section 2.1 seems too broad. It serves as an introduction to the research area rather than an introduction to the research topic.

3)          The detailed description of the data mentioned in lines 122-126 of P2, "During the summer... the annual total, respectively," should be referenced with the appropriate source.

4)          In lines 245-247 on page 12, relying solely on one year of forecasted numerical data lacks persuasiveness. It is advisable to include multiple statistical indicators or additional forecast years for validation.

5)          I cannot understand the meaning of "six-zoo model" in P13 Line 282.

6)          The formatting of images and text sections still requires careful revision.

 l   Here are some examples in the text：

 In line 47 of P1, the capitalization of the initial 'n' in 'non-conventional' is inconsistent. Please check throughout the entire text to ensure consistency in the capitalization of this word.

 In line 156 of P6, "DEMATEL" appears, but it's not the first occurrence, and there's a mix of capitalization. Please review the entire text to maintain consistent naming conventions.

 After line 178 on page 8, the abbreviation "BPNN" is not used. Please ensure consistency in the usage of abbreviations.

 The capitalization of the initial letters in the titles of section 2.4.2 is inconsistent.

 The formatting of the section titles in section 2.5 is not consistent.

 The A matrix mentioned in line 213 on page 10 could be considered for inclusion in the appendix.

 In line 219 of page 10, the description of the image uses "Fig." while the preceding text uses the full term "Figure." Please maintain consistency.

 l   Here are some examples in Figure and Table

The term "reach" in Fig. 2 should be explained and clarified after the image to indicate what it represents.

 The expression in Fig. 3 needs to be streamlined. Additional explanations can be provided after the image rather than stacking text on the image itself.

 The definition of "xi" in Fig. 3 does not need to be repeated.

 The meaning of the letters "ω," "Z," and "α" in Figure 5 appears to be unexplained in the text.

 Please simplify the flowchart in Figure 6 to highlight key points, and ensure consistency in the capitalization of titles between "Ⅰ" and "Ⅱ".

 The numbers following "X" in Figure 7 are not subscripted.

 Consider labeling the image above Figure 8 as it lacks a number. Additionally, due to the presence of multiple subplots, it might be advisable to split it into two separate figures.

 The number "2.6028" in Figure 9 lacks supplementary explanation.

 The latitude and longitude grid is missing in Figure 10.

Moderate editing of English language required.

Dear Expert Teacher.

Greetings. First of all, thank you very much for taking time out of your help to review my thesis. Next, I would like to answer the questions that you have asked me.

1. In lines 95-98 of P2, the statement "The control group..." mentions various treatment methods without specifying how these methods differ from previous research methods, what problem they aim to address, and it doesn't clarify the full names of abbreviations such as DEMATEL, BP, GA, PSO, which appear for the first time.

Re：In lines 100 to 109 of the article, I wrote the full names of the abbreviations DEMATEL, BP, GA, PSO, etc., which are highlighted in red in the article. In addition to this, I have added the reasons for using them, which are highlighted in green in the article.

2.The title in section 2.1 seems too broad. It serves as an introduction to the research area rather than an introduction to the research topic.

Re：I have changed the title of section 2.1 to " Overview of water resources in Heilongjiang Province".

3.The detailed description of the data mentioned in lines 122-126 of P2, "During the summer... the annual total, respectively," should be referenced with the appropriate source.

Re：In line 148 of the article, below Figure 2, I added the data sources. The data is from the "Heilongjiang Province Water Resources Bulletin", highlighted in green.

4.In lines 245-247 on page 12, relying solely on one year of forecasted numerical data lacks persuasiveness. It is advisable to include multiple statistical indicators or additional forecast years for validation.

Re：In this study, six models are used to predict the unconventional water resources utilisation in Heilongjiang province from 2008 to 2022, and then the actual utilisation of unconventional water resources in 2022 is used as the evaluation criterion, and a set of results with the smallest error from the actual value is selected. And the errors between the actual utilisation of unconventional water resources and the predicted values from 2008 to 2021 are represented in Figure 8.

5. I cannot understand the meaning of "six-zoo model" in P13 Line 282.

Re：I'm very sorry, the text should read "six sets model", I've made the change and highlighted it in red.

6. The formatting of images and text sections still requires careful revision.

Re：I made changes to the formatting of the article.

7. In line 47 of P1, the capitalization of the initial 'n' in 'non-conventional' is inconsistent. Please check throughout the entire text to ensure consistency in the capitalization of this word.

Re：I checked the entire text to make sure the word was case-sensitive.

8. In line 156 of P6, "DEMATEL" appears, but it's not the first occurrence, and there's a mix of capitalization. Please review the entire text to maintain consistent naming conventions.

Re：In line 170 of the article, I changed "DEMATEL" to "Dematel", which is shown in red in the text.

9.After line 178 on page 8, the abbreviation "BPNN" is not used. Please ensure consistency in the usage of abbreviations.

Re：After line 178, I use the abbreviation "BPNN", as in lines 199, 205 and 206, which are in red in the text.

10.The capitalization of the initial letters in the titles of section 2.4.2 is inconsistent.

Re：Initial case has been changed in the title of section 2.4.2 and is indicated in red in the text.

11.The formatting of the section titles in section 2.5 is not consistent.

Re：I have modified the formatting of the section headings in Section 2.5 to indicate them in red in the text.

12.The A matrix mentioned in line 213 on page 10 could be considered for inclusion in the appendix.

Re：I deleted the A matrix.

13. In line 219 of page 10, the description of the image uses "Fig." while the preceding text uses the full term "Figure." Please maintain consistency.

Re：I replaced the descriptions of the pictures with "Figure".

14.The term "reach" in Fig. 2 should be explained and clarified after the image to indicate what it represents.

Re：I have explained "Reach", which is shown in red in the text.

15.The expression in Fig. 3 needs to be streamlined. Additional explanations can be provided after the image rather than stacking text on the image itself.

 The definition of "xi" in Fig. 3 does not need to be repeated.

Re：Figure 3 shows the calculation process of Improvement of the Dematel model, so I think the formula in the figure is indispensable. And "X1-X9" in the figure represents nine indicators respectively.

16. The meaning of the letters "ω," "Z," and "α" in Figure 5 appears to be unexplained in the text.

Re：I have explained the letters in the diagram, which are shown in red in the text.

17. Please simplify the flowchart in Figure 6 to highlight key points, and ensure consistency in the capitalization of titles between "Ⅰ" and "Ⅱ".

Re：I have added explanations of the images below each image in Figure 6, in green in the text.

18.Consider labeling the image above Figure 8 as it lacks a number. Additionally, due to the presence of multiple subplots, it might be advisable to split it into two separate figures.

Re：I split figure 8 into two figures.

19. The number "2.6028" in Figure 9 lacks supplementary explanation.

Re：In Figure 10, I have explained the number "2.6028", which is shown in red in the text.

20.The latitude and longitude grid is missing in Figure 10.

Re：I have redrawn Figure 11 with the addition of the latitude and longitude grids.

21.In addition to this, in lines 45-46 of the article, there is a description of the classification of non-conventional water resources, which is shown in red in the article; in lines 46-48 of the article, there is a description of the aspects of the use of non-conventional water resources, which is shown in green in the article; and in the Discussion section of the article, I have added a description of the findings of the results of this study and an outlook of the future direction of the research, which is shown in green in the article.

Reviewer 2 Report (New Reviewer)

in table 1, the authors inform that the formulas, extremely important for the results presented, were developed by them and do not present references. On the other hand, they only present the meaning of each parameter and do not highlight/explain the nature of each function. Why use those specific types of functions and not others? How can results be presented based on the result of applications of formulas that are not explained in detail and have no references? It is somewhat confusing to accept a theory without explaining why it is used.

For the work to have a scientific sound, these details must be described. I suggest that in the Table 1 section, each unprecedented formula must be explained to readers (why is each of them there?) of the area for the purposes of validity and acceptance of the results obtained .

The use of formula references of similar nature for similar purposes is highly required.

Round 3

Reviewer 2 Report (New Reviewer)

.

This manuscript is a resubmission of an earlier submission. The following is a list of the peer review reports and author responses from that submission.

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The authors focus on studying the influences factor on Heilongjiang Province's unconventional Water Resources. This work introduces the concept of comparison testing and utilizes enhanced Dematel and random forest models to screen two sets of optimal indicators out of nine indicators. Based on the two best indicator sets, three prediction models - BP neural network, PSO - BP, and GA - BP - were used to forecast the future potential of unconventional water resource use in Heilongjiang Province. It is essential to study. However, too many concerns should be addressed. We decided to reject this paper.

Here are our major comments:

1)       The writing logic and structure of the article are very confusing. Authors should logically organize each work and result instead of describing all the relevant work.

2）The English must be polished by a native speaker. Most of the sentences are not connected.

3）The author seems not to have paid enough attention to this paper. Some mistakes in the reference format. The font size in some figures is extremely unreadable.

Here are some examples in the text：

abbreviations

         P1, Line 17  BP neural network, PSO - BP, and GA - BP -

         P1, Line 36 . The Global Environment Outlook (GEO) is not needed for abbreviations

Introduction

Lines 57-62 The key novelty of this work is missing. The first paragraph does not show it clearly due to unnecessary details.

Lines 108-112 The research background is unclear as well.

Lines 114-126 At the end of your introduction, an evident outline or target should be placed to show the logic of this work.

Materials and Methods

Line 129-130 Materials and Methods

Same issue: too many unnecessary details in the study region and methods. A simple introduction should be done with a clear structure. This work is a research for investigation rather than proposing a novel method. The method is not the key one.

Suggestion: a map can help you introduce the study region.

Lines 165 (김준순 et al.,2003).

Results and Conclusion

This work seems to be a data report rather than an investigation.

Line 278 Matlab->MATLAB

Line 291 the training set-up can be placed in the supplement

Line 300-301 the way you plot does not matter

l   Here are some examples in Figure
