This @PEERorg report has Bush-era feel: "ARCTIC SCIENTIST PROTESTS WITCH HUNT ON POLAR BEAR PAPER — Studies Disrupted as Supervising Federal Scientist Suspended from Duties." Looking into it. http://www.peer.org/news/news_id.php?row_id=1503

ARCTIC SCIENTIST PROTESTS WITCH HUNT ON POLAR BEAR PAPER

IG interview transcripts do reveal, however, that –

The probe is being conducted by criminal investigators with no scientific training or background, who, based upon their questions, have little grasp of the scientific issues they are investigating;
They have rifled through all of Dr. Monnett’s e-mails and seized his papers and equipment, impeding his ability to work even before he was ordered to stay home; and
The investigators are seeking a link to former Vice President Al Gore, who referenced the polar bear paper in his book and movie, An Inconvenient Truth.
