Reviewer 2 Report

Thank you for addressing my concerns. The manuscript has improved, though I maintain that the study itself is not novel, and the results are tautological.  However, I am sufficiently satisfied with the presentation and and thus cannot reject it.

Reviewer 2 Report

The manuscript presents innovative research on factors impacting eucalypt radial growth during the dry season on a site in tropical China.  

The manuscript has the potential to be a solid contribution.  The research topic, methodology, and execution have substantial merit.  

Considerable improvements are needed in the manuscript. Improvement needs include:

1. More detail and clarity in describing methods

2.Eliminate unnecessary statements on methodology in the Introduction and Results section.

3. Improve english expression throughout.

4. Improve table titles and descriptive headings

5. Correct specific problems with several references that are not related to the manuscript topic.
