Deniers keep saying satellite data is more accurate than temperature measured at weather stations.

The last words from the reference provided about satellite inferred temperature stated:

"... if we were to trust the satellite data, that Australia may even be warming (slightly) faster than the Bureau’s data indicate."
Satellites do not measure temperature directly and modelling is required to produce inferred temperature. A much more complex matter than dealing with temperature measured at a weather station. A number of times the modelling had to be redefined to get more accurate inferred temperature.

But nature shows changes in temperature.

Remap shows how marine organisms are moving South; tropical fish off Sydney, and yellowfin off the East Coast of Tasmania are examples.

"Rain bombs" are becoming quite frequent, "rain bombs" being huge downpours in a short time frame.

Glaciers are in the main regressing.

Just lately sea ice off Antarctica was below average for the time of year.

Arctic sea ice is at the lowest extent ever recorded by satellites.

At Christmas time in New York people were able to comfortably be outside in T shirts.

An interesting article about views that Cruz suggests show that climate change is not happening.
The video clip attachment to the article discusses the issue of inferred temperature from satellites.
The article also discusses Antarctic sea ice in 2013/14. About a fortnight ago Antaractic sea ice extent was down by about 200,000 ks from the long term average.

Cruz would seem to have a personal interest in trying to debunk climate science:

"The oil and gas industry has been one of the largest financial supporters of Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign, contributing nearly $1 million, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. And Cruz’s personal wealth is also inherently tied to the fossil fuel industry, with nearly a quarter of his total assets coming from investments in oil and gas. According to Christian R. Grose, an associate professor of political science at the University of Southern California, a politician’s personal investments tend to impact their decision making."

Just checked sea ice extent for Antarctica and it is still below the long term average as shown by graph, click on Antarctic daily images:

Imogen forgets that there are thousands of scientists around the world already at this trough.

As the atmosphere in Aus is directly linked to the rest of the world, the local climate scientists only need to cut and paste the research from others (which I believe they were doing already)

The flea is usually whining because the satellite record shows that global warming has stopped.
The article to which he referred us was about how the satellite record showed that BOM had underestimated global warming.
How is this possible, when the satellite record shows global warming has stopped?
Easy. The clown who wrote the article, made up his own graphs.
This is the sort of rubbish the flea inflicts on us, when his obligation is to supply a reference to science to justify his baseless assertions. His ceaseless monologue of nonsense rarely has a reference to science, and when it does, it is pseudo-scince, like this article.
There is no science to show that human emissions have any measurable effect on climate, is there, flea?

Leo,
"The article to which he referred us was about how the satellite record showed that BOM had underestimated global warming.

It isn't. The satellite records conclusively disprove your claim that global warming has stopped.
