The scientist at the Centre of the Climate Change Row, Professor Phil Jones, of the University of East Anglia faces allegations that he manipulated and suppressed data regarding global temperature changes. He has been pointed the finger at, for obstructing requests for data under the Freedom of Information Act by Douglas Keenan. Professor Jones however defended himself by saying that he covered up only the defected data on temperature rise.
Professor Jones said, "We do need to make more of the data available, I fully accept that. We need to work differently, making more data available and making our assumptions clear".
He also added, "The work we do at the University of East Anglia is only a small part of climate science, there are thousands of climate scientists around the world supporting our results. It makes me quite worried that people are beginning to doubt about the climate warmed up".
Keenan's anxiety is about the lack of information on the location of the weather stations. Charge is that Professor Jones asked a colleague to delete e-mails concerning the 2007 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change last November.
Professor Jones apologized and said, "Some of the e-mails probably had poorly chosen words and were sent in the heat of the moment. I do regret sending some of them. We've not deleted any e-mails or data here at CRU".
Fantastic post, many interesting points. I believe 6 of days ago, I have saw a similar blog. Does anyone know how to track future posts?
