Instead, their friend-of-the-court brief attacks elements of the study itself, saying that "substantial scientific uncertainties" around climate risks abound.
"It is cool in the basic elements of the study, but greatly overextends what reliably can be interpreted from their data," says Andrew Biewener, a biomechanist at Harvard University who was not involved with the work.

A protocol describing the key elements of the study, a manual of operations containing full and detailed documentation of all operational procedures, assessment protocols, and data management procedures, are critical in ensuring a high-quality study.
The variation in the WTP and compensating variation estimates among examined studies can be attributed to differences in the levels of driving range considered, in other elements of the study design and in the country of study.
The basis of critical elements of the study design that lead to an accepted identification of the carcinogenic hazard of substances in food and beverages is the focus of this review.
