Proofreading guidelines for authors

• Authors are responsible forcarefully checking their manuscript before submitting for final review and acceptance by the editor. This might contain typos, missing co-authors and their affiliations, terminology, updates of data in tables, or updates of variables in equations. All these have to be clarified with the editor before uploading the accepted manuscript to the production.
• During production, Copernicus Publications applies image processing, typesetting, and language copy-editing. This work might raise questions from Copernicus Publications to the author, included as publisher remarks, or vice-versa if authors disagree with the adjustments made.
• The proofreading is therefore reserved for responses to the publisher remarks and, if applicable, spotting clear mistakes included during the production process.
• Updates to the manuscript content cannot be accepted and a further proofreading is not foreseen.
