Retracted climate critics' study panned by expert


By Dan Vergano, USA TODAY

Plagiarism and peer review concerns aside, some readers are asking
whether a soon-to-be-retracted study by climate critics was any good.
So, we asked an expert.

the right's gonna be all over this! you bet...surely beck and rush
will feature this...legislators will call for investigations...

oh. wait...this is by climate change CRITICS

which means we'll never hear from them again

But how good was the study? We asked network analysis expert Kathleen
Carley of Carnegie Mellon to take a look at whether the CSDA study, a
"bibliometric" critique of publishing links between climate scientists,
was any good in the first place. "I see this paper as more of an opinion
piece," Carley says, by email.

carnegie mellon...you cant trust ANYONE who went there! :-)
