Subject:
NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - Power outage affecting some SKYRAD instruments
DataStreams:nsaskyrad60sC1.b1, nsaskyrad20sC1.a0, nsaskyradC1.00
Description:
During the power outage the downwelling global measurement from the PSP instrument and 
downwelling diffuse 8-48 instrument shows a slight increase from -5 to +0 W/m2.  This is due 
to removal of thermal offsets induced by the AC heater during the power outage.  This 
heater is installed within the PSP ventilator - it is necessary for the NSA/C1 climate.
The downwelling longwave PIR instrument is unaffected due to case and dome temperature 
corrections.
The IRT is AC powered and was not operational during this time period.
Suggestions: 
Instrument characteristic - no workaround possible.
