What particularly startled the committee members was the revelation by Jones that, in climate science \u2013 apparently as distinct from other scientific disciplines \u2013 refusing to share data was \u201cstandard practice\u201d. One wonders why (well, actually, one does not wonder at all).<\/p>\n<p>Yet the most significant part of this exchange, largely buried by subsequent discussion of the issues already mentioned, occurred very early in Jones\u2019s evidence. Referring to the CRU\u2019s collaboration with two other climate units in America and another two in Russia and Japan respectively, Jones said: \u201cWe may be using a lot of common data, but the ways of going from the raw data to a derived product of gridded temperatures and then the average for the hemisphere and the globe is totally independent between the different groups.\u201d<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: blogs.telegraph.co.uk<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/climaterealists.com\/index.php?id=5276\">Read in full with comments \u00bb<\/a>  &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/YTb2_932YVUg-2tTT4J6ALw5ylA\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/YTb2_932YVUg-2tTT4J6ALw5ylA\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/YTb2_932YVUg-2tTT4J6ALw5ylA\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/YTb2_932YVUg-2tTT4J6ALw5ylA\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/ClimaterealistsNewsBlog\/~4\/hJ0Bpyj3OY8\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article Tags: Gerald Warner The appearance of Phil Jones, sometime head honcho of the CRU at the \u201cUniversity\u201d of East Anglia, hero of the Climategate e-mails scandal, before the Commons Science and Technology Committee yesterday was an interesting occasion.
