It is novel in providing support to that region. (3) No estimation yet of CC reduction- please provide (4) No diagrams, figures, charts, etc- would really strengthen proposal.

Assuming easy adaptation to the proposed methods should not be taken for granted. We suggest to include a model that shows how this could scale from test plot to regional, as well as a proposed model for changes to microclimate (nested model).
