I read your paper with great interest as I expand my knowledge about seismic signal. The paper is very interesting. I would like to correct the english language. Also, I would like to see the figures in high quality and more expressions in mathematical expressions. Please if you could write them to MathType.

Reviewer 2 Report

Dear Authors, Thank you for sending such a intersting paper, I feel honoured to prepare a peer review. In my opinion, the paper is constructed well, the method is presented step by step. In my version of the paper, figures are well visible anr readable. I have a really small sugestions for you.

1) I miss the thesic claerly statet in the Introduction section.

2) In the section 2.1. there are only 2 sentences concernig study area, for me, this should be a little bit extended, maybe you can add some information about water fluxes, climatoloigy, basins, maybe add some map pointing the localization of the South China Sea

3) For me a secion 2.2. can be improved by adding more detailes in the Figure 2 desription
