Abstract
The author would like to thank the discusser for providing some comments regarding the multiple-critical depth occurrence in two-stage cross sections. The work by the discusser, related to the more general cases in which the floodplain is rougher than the main channel, and the kinetic energy correction coefficient is variable, adds value to the original publication. The original paper was the first attempt to establish a criterion to describe the multiple-critical depth occurrence in two-stage cross sections. The results presented by the discusser advance the author’s approach, and they are necessary to be taken into account in practical applications. The author would like to add a few points: Since Q 1⁄4 Q2=ðgH5Þ, thus E has a linear relationship with Q , and Eq. (2) should be corrected as
