There appears to be quite a lot of interest in the publication of the BEST team's reworking of the global temperature index, which, as expected, come to pretty much the same conclusion as the other series.
The Economist's coverage is here, the Guardian here.

These studies seem to confirm the global warming estimated from the existing datasets, which is pleasing but not exactly a surprise to those of us who know how carefully the existing datasets are put together.
Wasn't it CRU who had lost their raw data?
