Journal Revision of a Daylighting Metrics Review

Field

Building Science

Study type

Manuscript revision and response planning

Challenge

A review manuscript required targeted revision after peer review while preserving consistency between the evidence base, methodology, reporting language, and the response to reviewers.

Approach

Reviewer concerns were separated into methodological, reporting, terminology, and presentation actions. The revision plan linked each comment to a manuscript location and required a final cross-check between the response letter and the revised text.

Methods

Reviewer-comment triage · Point-by-point response planning · Method/reporting consistency audit · Manuscript cross-check

Software / workflow

Tracked-change manuscript workflow

Project outcome

A revision-ready workflow was established that made each reviewer comment traceable to a concrete action and reduced the risk of inconsistency between the response letter and manuscript.
