1. Could you provide the output data for the 0.1, 1, and 10 day tau_rad simulations in https://swampe.readthedocs.io/en/latest/notebooks/QuickStart.html, as well as the exact input parameters (including runtime and timestep) for an exact comparison?

2. I suggest citing Dedalus (https://dedalus-project.org/citations/) in "Similar Tools" as an example of a Python code that can handle spherical shallow-water equations. Also the spectral GFDL FMS (https://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/idealized-spectral-models-quickstart/) is an example of another GCM that can also run in shallow-water mode, like mitGCM.

Adding a reference to openjournals/joss-reviews#4872 for tracking purposes.

Thank you for your comments! Apologies for the delay in addressing them.

1. The output data and the scripts used to generate it have been added to this folder and linked from the relevant section of QuickStart.
2. References to these tools have been added to the paper.
