This manuscript is a re-submission, based on a previous manuscript (https://www.hydrol-earth-syst-sci-discuss.net/hess-2016-624/). The 3 reviewers are relatively satisfied with the revised manuscript, and all recommend minor revision.
The authors' responses indicate that they accept the reviewer comments, and indeed the authors have already submitted a revised manuscript addressing all reviewer comments.

I am generally satisfied with the manuscript and the authors' responses to the review comments. I have two editorial suggestions:

1. A statement to the effect that "Increased P, ET and Q were found in most TP basins during the past 30 years except for the upper Yellow River basin and some sub-basins of Yalong River," appears in several places in the manuscript. I think it needs to be qualified because few of the increases were shown to be statistically significant. The fact that so many of the trend slopes are positive is certainly suggestive of an overall increase, but either more argument is needed to make this point, or additional qualification should be added.
Here I summarise the number of statistically significant increases shown in Figs 8, 10, 11
Westerly-dominated: Fig 8: P 0/3 ; ETwb 0/3; Q 1/3
East-Asian monsoon Fig 10: P 1/9 ; ETwb 3/9; Q 0/9
Indian monsoon Fig 11: P 2/6 ; ETwb 4/6; Q 1/6
Total over all basins: P 3/18; ETwb 7/18; Q 2/18

In total, 12 out of these 54 variables show a statistically significant increase.

2. The presentation of the 18 basins in Tables 2,3,4 would be improved if they were separated into the 3 sub-groups used elsewhere in the manuscript.
