From mm surveys, as the one we will ... [sentence structure]

[fpnavarr]

Hi,

Could someone help with this. I've received comments that this sentence is not well structured

"From (sub)mm surveys, as the one we will present in Chapter 2, follow-ups of selected
subsamples of submillimeter sources have been studied in greater detail in order to un-
derstand their physical nature"

I'm trying to say that a subsample of submilleter sources have studied with more detail, so it is possible to understand their possible nature.

'As' in the first line should be 'such as' or 'like'. 'Such as' is better here, because it more strongly suggests that the study in Chapter 2 is one of those surveys, not just a survey like (similar to) one of them. With that change, the sentence structure is fine. ('Not well structured' is not a very useful comment unless they then explain why not, is it?)

Thanks a lot. Yes, indeed "not well structured" is not a very specific comment , but sometimes I get to face them
