A perspective on the fundamental quality of GPS radio occultation data

(1) The structure of the paper is somewhat odd. The introduction is quite long, and the general part is literally loaded with references (there are, e.g. not less than ten references backing the argument that reanalyses are susceptible to deficiencies of the observations (page 9484)). The reference section is therefore almost as long as the paper itself. Compared to the introduction the results (and discussion) section is surprisingly short and the results are just illustrated with three figures.
