| Abstract | In Sect 3.6 the authors correctly mentioned that different thresholds were used to convert snow depth into binary snow cover in the literature. In particular they referred to our studies (Gascoin et al. 2015; Gascoin et al. 2019) where we reported different optimal threshold values (15 cm and 2 cm). However, it is important to note that these thresholds are not contradictory since they were obtained from products with different spatial resolutions. In the first case, we optimized the snow detection threshold with MODIS snow products (500 m) while in the second case we used the Sentinel-2 Theia C1 |
