Reviewer 2 Report

In this paper, the quantitative evaluation method is used to dynamically investigate the water cycle health in Zhengzhou city. The data source of the paper is reliable. In addition, the paper innovatively combines AHP and EFAST methods to make the evaluation results more convincing. Overall, the research is well executed, and the results shed insights for government authorities to enhance related policies. However, I have the following comments for the authors to consider in revising their manuscript:

(1) The time is inconsistent. The year of the data used in the paper should be 2010-2020, not 2011-2021. Authors need to make adjustments to some expressions, including abstracts and full texts.

(2) All variables need to be in italics, M in lines 192 and 198, etc.

(3) It is recommended to use Visio or professional software for pictures 2, 3, and 4 to increase the clarity of the pictures. It is a good starting point to use a diagram to show the information contained in Figure 6, but the perspective effect is not ideal. It is recommended to try different graphs or tables.

(4) It is not easy for each paragraph to be too long. For example, the first paragraph of the introduction is too long. It is recommended to express in good paragraphs so that readers can grasp the main point more quickly.

Round 2

Reviewer 1 Report

As a reviewer, it is difficult to get excited about this manuscript. The intent and significance remain obscure, and the analyses seem completed simply to complete them (relatively little purpose). Small editorial issues:

Line 30: braces is the incorrect word

Lines 69-70: First sentence is unnecessary
