Climate Scientists withdraw sea level rise paper
 Study claimed in 2009 that sea levels would rise by up to 82cm by the end of century -- but the report's author now says true estimate is still unknown----- Announcing the formal retraction of the paper from the journal, Siddall said: "It's one of those things that happens. People make mistakes and mistakes happen in science." He said there were two separate technical mistakes in the paper, which were pointed out by other scientists after it was published. A formal retraction was required, rather than a correction, because the errors undermined the study's conclusion. From the Guardian - don't expect the Wapost or NYTimes to carry it. I'm surprised the Guardian did. If it wasn't for the Guardian we wouldn't have any honest reporting on climate change by a progressive newspaper. Posted by: lord garth 2010-02-22 |
