update: ... Kaleidoscope

Hmmm ... in the end a shattered Kaleidoscope. 

update: 

A shame Sene etal N 2017 was not yet published during submission to cite:

 "Metrology is key to reproducing results ... Scientists of all stripes must work with measurement experts so that studies can be compared.  ... So what  can be done? One simple step would  be for funding bodies to involve more metrologists in project selection and assessment. This would encourage the funding of replication studies, help to ensure that financed studies use good metrological practice and set studies up to allow for future attempts at replication. Grants should assess ‘pathways to reproducibility’ along with ‘pathways to impact’. ... " 

see Nature  and replace in the text metrology by hydrology. A missed opportunity for the funding bodies of ..F and me. Well nxt time....
