Again, not sure what you're exactly getting at but data correction is done after the data is recorded. There's nothing that prevents us from going back to older records and incorporating those into the new ones. There are also other ways to indirectly measure past temperatures using proxy data. I don't see what you mean by inadequate data.

Dude you can't win, he'll just use emotional language to argue you in circles. He feelz he is right, therefor he is right regardless of what your hate facts would say.
If he was really interested in knowing the planets thermal energy output, aka temperature, he would advocate just measuring it from space where there isn't anything disrupting the measurements. Satellites aren't homogenized because they don't need it. They aren't taking a temperature reading at the ground at a particular spot amongst a UHI, then extrapolating that to represent an entire Alaska worth of real estate, they are taking a direct energy reading of an entire region underneath them.

Wow, thanks man for repeating what I just said. Imagine how much more productive your posts would be if you weren't too afraid to take me off block.
Except for he didn't.
The satellite data being talked about is literally meaningless with regard to temperatures because the raw data are reflectance values (measures of radiation hitting the sensors). These then need to be processed to get the desired data set. Also, these satellites (or any satellite really) need constant corrections for changes in orbit as well as atmospheric corrections. Remember there's a large atmosphere between the satellite and the area of interest so that needs to be accounted for, which requires *ta-dah* adjustments.
So most of the "adjustments" are just them correcting for the differences in manufacturing, orbits and tuning. It's very well documented, based on thermodynamics, and applied on an individual level to each satellite source. There is no "averaging" or "homogenizing" of the data, it's still raw, just corrected such that they all have the same baseline to compare from. One satellites measurements will have no effect on a nearby satellites data adjustment. The whole process used, including code, is published and open for public inspection. The tuning adjustment values are take from the manufacturers themselves, the drift values from physics calculations. It's a whole system designed for maximum unbiased transparency free from governmental interference, and it was done this way by NASA because they feared a Republican administration would suppress the "Global Warming" evidence they believed, at that time, the satellite system would prove. It didn't happen and now they are kicking themselves in the *** for not putting it under their control.

Satellites aren't homogenized because they don't need it. This is a completely ignorant statement. Of course they do. Different satellites at different orbits at different heights above the earth measuring surface temperatures at different areas all at different times of the day all combined into one data set would need correction. Utterly ridiculous.

So your argument is editing my quoted posts. And here I thought you might actually be listening. Nothing I wrote was hostile or condescending towards you and the only thing you can do is blow it off. You're the worst kind of science critic. The kind that has zero knowledge of the topic and has no intention of learning anything yet still think their opinion matters. Clueless and ignorant no matter the topic, as usual.

With an amazing scientific breakthrough, Climate Scientists have discovered the sun has a huge impact on our climate.
Quote: Scientists at the Climate and Environmental Physics and Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of Berne in Switzerland have recently backed up theories that support the sun's importance in determining the climate on Earth. A paper published last year by the American Meteorological Society contradicts claims by IPCC scientists that the sun couldn't be responsible for major shifts in climate. Judith Curry, chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology, rejected IPCC assertions that solar variations don't matter. Among the many studies and authorities she cited was the National Research Council's recent report "The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate". http://www.nationmultimedia.com/opinion/Cold-sun-rising-30272650.html

No.
Thermal sounding is notorious for having issues with cloud cover / water vapor, which is why it is correlated with microwave sounding.
Not just that, but a good number of satellites (at least up until around mid-00s) are(or were) primarily focused on weather-related data collection, not climate-related collection. You need significantly better accuracy for climate-related collection, as you are working against small variances over long timespans (and have to account for drift of various components of the sensors over time and temperature (e.g. aging of capacitors)).
And that doesn't even get into all the various issues just with regards to external interference to the observing platform (i.e. radiation).
There's quite a impressive and ongoing body of work involved in the various approaches of verifying/correcting/excluding satellite measurements.
Here's a ready example of this type of activity.

He doesn't want the published paper "interpreted" from any news source. He wants to read the actual published paper that the story was about.
If you can't check the citations of a news source -especially when it's an easily verifiable research paper- than that news source doesn't need to be considered a source of news.
Manyy, many news agencies are bad about linking primary documents that can support their article.

In that entire article, only one item is actually called out; that is the "The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate", which, according to the actual document:
TheReport_pgVII-VIII_reference_doi:10.17226/13519 said: This workshop report contains no recommendations, findings, or statements of consensus. Instead, this workshop report summarizes the views expressed by individual workshop participants (invited speakers and guests). Also included is background information intended to provide context to the reader on both the solar and climate science topics presented at the workshop; however, this is not intended to be an exhaustive review of the current state of the science. Although the committee is responsible for the overall quality and accuracy of the report as a record of what transpired at the workshop, the views contained in the report are not necessarily those of all workshop participants, the committee, or the National Research Council.
But if you are reading something that says items along the lines of:
Quote: A paper published last year by the American Meteorological Society contradicts claims and doesn't go on further to actually say what author, let alone journal, or issue...
You should just stop reading anything by that author.
To give an example, the AMS has 11 journals, each of which has anywhere between 6 to 16 publications in a year's span (volume).
Each publication may have anywhere from 1 to 30ish entries.
So that opinion article is giving you a target of anywhere from 60 to 5000 targets to look into. There may very well be more than one paper published which contradict claims by the IPCC. But you won't know which damn paper your writer is writing about.
So no, saying
Hades.Altimaomega said: » If he really cared to have an informed opinion he would look up all the scientists names mentioned and the study's they conduct. is utter ***.
If I care to have an informed opinion, I can read the specific paper, note the methodologies and assumptions, and understand the results in context with the limitations of the methodology and assumptions.
If you are just reading whatever tom *** and harry decides to post as an opinion article on a sixth-rate site, and claiming that as being valid news of any sort (or as a basis for forming any opinion)....

I couldn't find the paper but this synopsis of the meeting mentions nothing about climate. The research team proposed a model of solar sunspot activity, suggesting a rare occurrence of conditions leading to a Maunder Minimum.
Why certain media outlets came to associate this with another ice age probably comes from the fact that the last Minumum occurred during the Little Ice Age. However,
Quote: The Maunder Minimum roughly coincided with the middle part of the Little Ice Age, during which Europe and North America experienced colder than average temperatures. Whether there is a causal relationship, however, is still controversial, as no convincing mechanism for the solar activity to produce cold temperatures has been proposed,[12] and the current best hypothesis for the cause of the Little Ice Age is that it was the result of volcanic action.[13][14] The onset of the Little Ice Age also occurred well before the beginning of the Maunder minimum.[13]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maunder_Minimum#Little_Ice_AgeSo, yeah, the article's content is ***, but that could have been assumed from all the climate change misinformation that made of the rest of text.

Quote: “Between the years 2010 and 2012 the data measured since 1881 were altered so that they showed a significant warming, especially after 1950…. A comparison of the data from 2010 with the data of 2012 shows that NASA-GISS had altered its own datasets so that especially after WWII, a clear warming appears – although it never existed,” Ederer writes.
“Using the NASA data from 2010 the surface temperature globally from 1940 until today has fallen by 1.110°C, and since 2000 it has fallen 0.4223°C. … The cooling has hit every continent except for Australia, which warmed by 0.6339°C since 2000. The figures for Europe: From 1940 to 2010, using the data from 2010, there was a cooling of 0.5465°C and a cooling of 0.3739°C since 2000.”

I've mentioned several times that NASA and NOAA frequently alter the archived temperature records in order to manipulate the trend lines. It's why I only look at satellite data now as that's available to everyone in raw form without that kind of deliberate manipulation.
