AR by Olakunle Ogunjobi on behalf of the Authors (22 Jul 2025)
The authors here study the transport of highly energetic particles during ground level enhancement events, in the presence of stream interface transport conditions. In so doing they aim to elucidate the behaviour of particle transport coefficients in this scenario. While this is a potentially interesting study, I have some serious concerns about the methodology, as well as the results and the conclusions drawn therefrom, and do not think this manuscript is ready yet to be published. I raise the most serious concerns below, and follow up with some minor issues.
