Wanted to note a typo, I believe, in the the paragraph beginning the section on water levels: “2020” should “2022” (? )

(If this has been mentioned here already, or if I’m mistaken, please ignore.)

Reading with great interest. Excellent!

Well reasoned article.

Based on this reconstruction, it would still be correct to state that the Ukrainians "blew up" the dam, since it failed precisely where they had been shelling and where they had hit the sluice gate with a missile. They knew the dam was weakened there -- that it just needed a bit more stress -- which they then applied by increasing the discharge from upstream reservoirs that they controlled.

Thanks for your work.
