Murry Salby is an atmospheric scientist and climate skeptic who has twice left academic posts due to scandal:

mid 1980s: University of Colorado Boulder
- 2005: The NSF investigated him and found that he had displayed "a pattern of deception [and] a lack of integrity" in his handling of federal grant money.
- 2008: Salby voluntarily resigned from UCB.
2008: became professor of climate risk at Macquarie University
- 2013: dismissed by the university on grounds of refusal to teach and misuse of university resources.
  - Salby responded with accusations against Macquarie, some of which apparently remain unanswered.

Salby's primary point of contention with the global warming consensus is that recent sharp rises in CO₂ are due to natural causes, a common AGW denialist claim; Salby's arguments are specifically answered here.
