West Antarctica Warming Faster Than Thought

Yes. No need to retract your PhD, your whole domain is a sham.

Yes. That's why we produce the same structural data as the X-ray crystallography guys do with a completely different method.

Oh, I forgot to mention, the above was only the digital processing. Before the raw data - i.e. the signal of the receiver coils - get digitized, they run through a preamp, a couple of analog filters, the main amp and the a/d-converter, each component, even the cables in between, adding artifacts and distortions to the signal.

In summary, every non-trivial measurement yields heavily processed data. You just need to be aware how exactly you processed them. Science, it works, bitches.
