Short summary
A second-order conservative remapping is a common and standard method for transformation of data from one grid system to another in climate studies. The author describes a fundamental problem in the derivation of the method in spherical coordinates proposed by a pioneer study, which is left unresolved and unrealized. It has a potential to damage the remapping, however no significant impacts are expected in the past studies, because of a formulation introduced for the other objective.
