Round 2

Reviewer 2 Report

It is a credit to the authors that they have worked very hard to implement changes to make this a more readable article. It must have been a daunting and difficult task. While not perfect the manuscript is now more readable. I have highlighted in yellow a copy of the manuscript to show where some other changes can be made. I have removed capitalisation from eastern and western deserts- you may wish to keep these though which is fine if they are consistent. I attach some small changes and I have highlighted in the text where these are. I am happy to accept the manuscript after the changes have been done. Very well done to the authors who have worked so hard to put this work into English which can be very difficult. I congratulate you.
