From: Eduardo Zorita To: t.osborn@uea.ac.uk (Tim Osborn) Subject: Re: Response to Wahl et al in Science Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2006 16:18:00 +0200 (MET DST) Cc: Eduardo.Zorita@gkss.de, k.briffa@uea.ac.uk Tim, yes, I also found it strange. We noticed that Amman and Wahl cited their Science comment as accepted in their manuscript that is now in press in Climatic Change. Personally I think it is convenient that this clarification gets published but I am somewhat disapointed by the fact that a very similar content was submitted by Buerger and Cubasch about one year ago and it was not even sent to reviewers (it is the paper that finally appeared in Tellus). I think that comment was of much higher quality than Wahl´s. Science knew of the Tellus paper, since we cite it in our response. So actually there is scientifically nothing new in this exchange, but it will be published in Science... Anyway, I am happy to have more time now for more productive work and hope that Ritson doe not bomb me with more mails in the future eduardo > Thanks for letting us know, Eduardo.
