Abstract

The authors of Peng et al. (2019) would like to thank Arie Ben-Zvi for the discussion about the coincidence flood risk modeling in Jinsha River and Min River, China. Arie’s comment brings focus to the discussion of extreme value selection methodology and historical flood information. In flood risk analysis, we acknowledge that there is always alternative modeling approach that could be used to generate desired prediction results. In this comment, Arie made two valuable points regarding Peng et al. (2019), and our responses are provided in the following two paragraphs.
