Suggestions for revision or reasons for rejection

Minor Comments on the Revised version of the manuscript (version4):

Page 3 – Line 69: “exploratory study”
-> I suggest to remove the word “exploratory”.

Page 3 – Line 77 (also in the comment) : Observations with a wind speed tendency δu/δt ≥ 15 ms−1
-> The unit is m/s² not m/s

Page 5 – Setting z2 to be the … z1 to be the
-> That sounds linguistically strange to me (not a native speaker). How about: In our study z2 is the hub height of 100m.a.s.l and z1 is the height of the wind sensors and alpha is 0.12. This way we obtain the….

Page 8 – Line 150 … fall between 4 < u <= 25…
-> Unit is missing here. The same is true one line below.

Page 12 – Line 237: to exceed approx. 600km
-> Space between number and unit.

Page 15 – of at least 25%
-> Add space between number and unit

Page 20 – Line 359 … on the background flow (ref)
-> The reference is missing here.

Page 27 – Line 484-86: This research paper with he working title….
-> This is a very long sentence, please consider rewriting by e.g. removing the title of the manuscript. Also the “you reduce” sounds very colloquial to me. However, I am not a native speaker.

Figure 6: demonstrate how IQR and RCoV change…
-> I suggest to spell out IQR and RCoV out here once again as this helps reading the figure independently of the paper.

Figure 8: pair-vise
-> I guess you mean: pairwise

Figure 10: Please add a space between number and unit in the figure title.

Figure 11 & 12: The figure panels are quite small and a lot of space is wasted due to large white margins. That should be improved in the final manuscript.

Tables 4 & 5: The captions are overlapping with the table content. In general the table captions should be above the table.
