RTL Risk Assessment

Some risk

About this assessment

This risk assessment is based on the WOWD 'WIS en WAS' research (2008), conducted by the Scientific Research Animal Welfare Pigeons committee of the NPO. The study analyzed 287 race flights (2002-2005) and identified which weather and flight factors influence the return of pigeons.

Criteria per factor

Factor	Favorable	Neutral	Some risk	Risk
Wind	W-N 1-3 Bft, S-W 1-6 Bft	-	N-SE direction, W-N 4-5 Bft, variable 0-2 Bft	W-N 6+ Bft, >= 7 Bft
Temperature	15-20°C	10-15°C, 20-25°C	26-28°C (24-26°C young birds), < 10°C	>= 29°C (>= 27°C young birds)
Humidity	60-75%	75-90%	< 60% of > 90%	-
Cloud cover	0-5/8	6-7/8, or mainly high clouds	8/8	Low clouds >= 80% (blocks UV)
Precipitation	Dry	Showers with clearing	Many showers	Rain/thunderstorm
Visibility	>= 10 km	7-10 km	5-7 km	< 5 km / fog
UV-index	-	2-5	>= 6, or UV < 2 (weak orientation)	-
Air pressure	>= 1020 hPa	1000-1020 hPa	<= 1000 hPa	-
