The ‘hockey stick’ that became emblematic of the threat posed by climate change exaggerated the rise in temperature because it was created using ‘inappropriate’ methods, according to the head of the Royal Statistical Society.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Professor David Hand said that the research \u2013 led by US scientist Michael Mann \u2013 would have shown less dramatic results if more reliable techniques had been used to analyse the data. <\/p>\n

Prof Hand was among a group of experts charged with investigating the “climategate” email scandal that engulfed the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) last year. <\/p>\n

Sceptics claimed that the hacked messages showed scientists were manipulating data to support a theory of man-made global warming. <\/p>\n

However the review, led by Lord Oxburgh into the research carried out by the centre, found no evidence of ”deliberate scientific malpractice”. <\/p>\n

Lord Oxburgh said the scientists at the research unit arrived at their conclusions ”honestly and sensibly”.
