Despite my complaining about positive results bias in CFD, our papers have received excellent reviews and journals have been fast to publish them. I won't attribute that to paper quality, because I don't think our work is that good. :-)<br /><br />However, judging from what I've seen recently revealed, I'd say climate science doesn't have the same track record. I guess James, you were a co-author on a paper that was rejected with no good reason at least according to Lucia about model vs. data trends, I recall.

But one is left to wonder what the author/reviewer's contribution really was if he didn't even recognize the paper?<br /><br />Though, I must admit that there was one conference paper with my name on it, that I only discovered many years later on the Internet. A report on ongoing work of a multi-institute research team to which I indeed belonged, but to the writing job of which I was never invited and drafts of which were never sent to me as well as I can remember. Not good.<br /><br />Martin Vermeerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04537045395760606324noreply@blogger.com
