FIELD REFERENCE GUIDE · Gravel Ultra
DSS FIELD uses MQ ATMOS™ technology, a multi-source meteorological analysis and cross-referencing system developed by DSS for mountain endurance events. MQ ATMOS™ aggregates forecast models, national meteorological agency data, climate reanalysis, and proprietary divergence indexing to produce field-grade weather intelligence. Data presented in this report are descriptive. Operational decisions remain with event organisation.
| PRECIPITATION · mm accumulated · Gravel surface conditions | |
|---|---|
| Value | Condition description |
| < 1 mm | Damp surface · compacted gravel keeps grip · tarmac and bridge decks slick |
| 1 – 4 mm | Loose gravel binds · reduced braking on descents · washboard sections slippery |
| 4 – 10 mm | Standing water in ruts · softened farm tracks · drivetrain contamination |
| > 10 mm | Flooded tracks and fords · clay sections unrideable · extended drag on long exposed sectors |
| WIND · km/h · Effect over long open sectors | |
|---|---|
| Value | Condition description |
| < 15 km/h | No appreciable effect |
| 15 – 30 km/h | Perceptible · headwind on plateau sectors increases effort |
| 30 – 50 km/h | Strong · crosswind instability on open gravel at speed · cooling on Alvão ridgeline |
| > 50 km/h | Very strong · gusts can displace line on loose surface · high exposure above 1,000 m |
| TEMPERATURE · °C · Athlete thermal perception · 12 h window | |
|---|---|
| Value | Condition description |
| > 24 °C | Heat · elevated hydration demand on exposed afternoon sectors |
| 14 – 24 °C | Comfortable thermal conditions |
| 8 – 14 °C | Cool · thermal layer recommended for early start and descents |
| 3 – 8 °C | Real cold · active cooling with wind or rain · extremities exposed on long descents |
| < 3 °C | Extreme cold · prolonged exposure with moisture or wind carries hypothermia risk |
| DAYLIGHT · selected day · riding window 08–20h | |
|---|---|
| Value | Condition description |
| Sunrise — | Flat early light · fog likely in the Corgo valley |
| Sunset — | After this time you ride in civil twilight · front light on |
| Civil dusk | About 30 min after sunset · full lights from this point |
| 20:00 | End of the riding window used by this reading |
