UK inquiry: Emails do not undermine climate science...
An investigation by the University of East Anglia into the British research unit cleared its scientists of serious wrongdoing, but criticized their lack of openness and said some of their data was misleading.
The third and most comprehensive investigation into the emails, led by former civil servant Muir Russell, defended the integrity of the university's Climatic Research Unit.
It also said the emails contained nothing to overturn the case for manmade global warming put forward by the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
"Their rigor and honesty as scientists are not in doubt," the report concluded. "We did not find any evidence of behavior that might undermine the conclusions of the IPCC.
The university's vice chancellor, Edward Acton, said the report had exonerated his staff and he hoped it would end the conspiracy theories and untruths; that have dogged the unit.
