At least it did in Australia, where Willis Eschenbach took a look at the raw data to determine what effect the "homogenization" process at the NOAA's Global Historical Climate Network had on the temperature readings. Like alchemists of old, it transformed decades-long declines in temperature into rapid upward spikes completely ...

Time has summarized the controversy surrounding the hacked emails from researchers at the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at Britain’s University of East Anglia. Here is the section on the interpretation of the email: To global warming doubters, the CRU emails are the new Pentagon Papers, proof that the powers that be — in this case, international [...]

This long post, quoting from a discussion by Willis Eschenbach, shows how the CRU falsified data (late 19th century through 20th century) from Australian temperature measuring stations to show a trend rise in temperature, rather than the trend decline in...

Lance at Small Dead Animals provides the earth-shattering headline on the Climategate scandal: THE E-MAILS WEREN'T HACKED, THEY WERE PURPOSEFULLY LEAKED FROM WITHIN! Of course, considering that it's more "convenient" for the press to pooh-pooh the ethics of the "hacked" data, I don't expect this is going to be getting any mainstream traction any time soon...

... problem, compared with 44 percent the previous year. This skepticism predated the exposure of the East Anglia e-mails -- those playful missives that reveal some of the most prominent climate researchers to be, if not outright charlatans, at least partisans. Why don’t people buy global warming? Doubtless the poor economy has pushed less immediate worries to the background. But even...

The University of East Anglia is to launch a review into the theft and online publication of hundreds of emails sent by scientists in its climate research unit. Selected and unverified extracts from the emails have been used by climate change deniers to claim that the scientists colluded to manipulate climate data, causing a storm on deniers' blogs. The charge is rejected as "despicable"...

Consider the Brits on the sideline until 2012 on global warming. The Met Office will need three years to rebuild ground-based climate models while recompiling raw data from the past 160 years to replace the data that the University of East Anglia's CRU destroyed years ago. They want to create ...

People send me stuff. I post the good stuff. From my correspondent: “A succinct reasons as why science isn’t run by consensus. Nor should cheaters be tolerated.” As to any graduates of the University of East Anglia who may be offended, I suggest you get your money back. Professor Phil Jones just discounted your degree.

We’ve now had two posts on the East Anglia University email hacking affair and the material continues to flow. This update is a sample of what I’ve seen of the more sensible material. Michael Le Page has a plain language article in the New Scientist entitled Why there’s no sign of a climate conspiracy in hacked [...]

as reported by the BBC!?? More here, including this nice tidbit... When the global warming canard migrated from niche research into trillions of dollars of policy changes effecting every human being on the planet, the PhD level of quality control should have been ejected immediately. With the fate of humanity at risk, it is not too much to ask for professional quality code, analysis, and a

The Climate Research Unit (CRU) at East Anglia University has taken a pasting recently. In previous blogs here Phil Jones' "trick to hide the decline" has been shown to have no relevance to the scientific data, only to the appearance of a graph on...

Nice geocoin picked up recently, the coin was designed by East Anglian Cachers . Interesting that the map extends as far west as Herts and Beds, which I would never have thought of as East Anglia. So, Watford (which is on the tube map) is part of East Anglia, but the fenlands around Spalding, Lincolnshire, are not - according to this definition.
