However, editor of this text is skeptical to interpretation of these observations as due to tectonic strain because: 
-      - the reported strain rates are too large (10<sup>-1</sup> mm/y, i.e. same order as in the eastern Alps) to be in agreement, on a regional scale, with concept of active Alpine orogen vs. stable foreland;+      - the reported strain rates and slip rates are too large (slip rate of 10<sup>-1</sup> mm/y, i.e. same order as the faults in the eastern Alps) to be in agreement, on a regional scale, with concept of active Alpine orogen vs. stable foreland;
       - the locally observed geological records rule out that such deformation at BF could have been operative on a long-term scale during Quaternary;       - the locally observed geological records rule out that such deformation at BF could have been operative on a long-term scale during Quaternary;
-      - the non-tectonic deformation (climatic/hydrogeological, slope instability, problematic long-term stabilization of measurement points) of the surface is expected to compete with such strain rates or exceed them (see the extensive literature on the effects of water management and climatic change on surface deformation and Vyskočil 1996). For example, repeated levelling on a profile crossing the BF near Tetčice (section BF_6; Roštínský et al. 2013) and suggesting vertical strain of 10<sup>-1</sup> mm/y order, was partly carried out in the area of former pond (see maps of the 1<sup>st</sup> military mapping from 1764-1768) and therefore likely affected by ongoing sediment compaction.+      - the non-tectonic deformation (climatic/hydrogeological, slope instability, problematic long-term stabilization of measurement points) of the surface is expected to compete with such strain rates or exceed them (see the extensive literature on the effects of water management and climatic change on surface deformation and Vyskočil 1996).
