Dear Authors,
both referees highly appreciated your research, addressing the important issue of the reliability of the recenlty available CPMs at different scales, that is so relevant in the hydrological applications.
They both suggest minor revisions, mainly related to clarifying some points in the methodology and to provide more details in the discussion of the connection between scales and hydrological processes in mountain areas.
Therefore I warmly invite you to complete the revised version and submit it.
Best wishes,
