The manuscript underwent a significant discussion phase, with constructive comments by the two reviewers extensively addressed by the Authors in their replies. I have an additional point for the Authors' consideration: throughout the paper, variations in atmospheric and hydrologic variables are reported for actual, pre-dam, and non-irrigation scenarios; these variations are rather small in many cases, and it would be of interest to complement the information on these variations with some indication about their statistical significance. Is there a way to support the scenario analysis with some uncertainty estimation, so as to understand if a variation of, say, 0.1 degrees in temperature is within the uncertainty bands or not? Some uncertainty/significance analysis would very much increase the quality of the manuscript, also dispelling the doubts raised by the reviewers that the manuscript might be incremental with respect to other works recently published by the same group of Authors.
