最近的事情,又是跟气候争论有关。

来龙去脉是:
Mann 1990年代末提出的hockey stick是全球变暖的最重要的宣传品;
但是Wegman 代表美国统计学会2006年给众议院的报告说hockey stick统计学上不成立;

结果最近变暖一方的Bradley(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_S._Bradley)指责Wegman报告剽窃了他的文字和数据;

但是Bradley随即被揪出曾经笨拙地剽窃另外的作者(他引了某书的前一版本,但是实际原封不动抄袭的却是该书的后一版,而且未加注明)。

详细内容在此:

http://climateaudit.org/2010/10/20/bradley-copies-fritts-2/

目前的结果是:

Climate Audit 说道:
As indicated in the email sent by Bradley to a third party shown below, Bradley’s actual objective in filing the complaint against Wegman may not have been a concern over alleged plagiarism, but an effort to get Wegman’s criticisms of MBH98-99 (criticisms which North and Bloomfield conceded under oath) removed from the Congressional record. Bradley writes as follows:

Bradley 说道:
I filed a complaint with George Mason University (where Wegman is a Professor) & they have set up a committee to investigate my complaint. I【A】 recent letter from their Vice-Chancellor indicates that they expect the committee to report their findings by the end of September.

That’s the long & short of it. I have told the University that I am prepared to drop this matter if Wegman makes a request to have his report withdrawn from the Congressional Record. No response on that.

Thanks

Ray 【Bradley】

这里面的回合很多,作为类比的话,俺认为Mann是学术氛围内的瞎编乱造,Wegman是打假,之后就都是报复性打假了。

白大哥出的糗事,老中再发挥上十倍也不稀奇。所以看虹桥一干人欣欣然要举报这个举报那个,没什么新鲜的。
