Dear Author,

Thank you for your work in addressing the reviewers' concerns and submitting a revised version to GMD. There are just two remaining points I would like you to consider before closing the review process:

Reviewer 1, Question 6:
This point seemed to be quite a concern for the referee, and a modification to the manuscript should be considered. For instance by adding the last statement in your reply on the 10% difference when switching off this process in the nudged simulation.

Reviewer 2, Question 4:
The discussion of how the differences in the design of the two dust schemes can lead to such differences in emission fluxes is interesting and you could consider including part of it to the paper.
