Scientists have underestimated the role that water vapour
plays in determining global temperature changes, according
to a new study that could fuel further attacks on the
science of climate change.
The research, led by one of the world's top climate
scientists, suggests that almost one-third of the global
warming recorded during the 1990s was due to an increase in
water vapour in the high atmosphere, not human emissions of
greenhouse gases. A subsequent decline in water vapour
after 2000 could explain a recent slowdown in global
temperature rise, the scientists add. [...]
The new research comes at a difficult time for climate
scientists, who have been forced to defend their
predictions in the face of an embarrassing mistake in the
2007 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC), which included false claims that Himalayan
glaciers could melt away by 2035. There has also been heavy
criticism over the way climate scientists at the University
of East Anglia apparently tried to prevent the release of
data requested under Freedom of Information laws.

Stop changing your details so often FFS, it's infuriating.
Have you got something to hide?
