Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 29.91 | 17.47 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.87 – 43.85 | 24.21 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 6.59 – 22.87 | 8.03 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 8.48 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 2783.44 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 197.44 | 27.5 – 184.48 |
These values describe the documented climate envelope of the taxon. They are not, by themselves, a local recommendation.
Documented soil preferences
| Variable | Unit | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cation exchange capacity (CEC) | cmol(+)/kg | 6.8 – 29.22 | 9.2 – 13.8 |
| Clay | % | 12.76 – 39.42 | 18.1 – 26.8 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.98 – 21.34 | 9.1 – 14.5 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.54 – 2.96 | 0.81 – 1.44 |
| pH | — | 5.18 – 6.6 | 5.9 – 6.3 |
| Sand | % | 32.22 – 72.26 | 45.1 – 60.8 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 7.1 – 36.6 | 9.3 – 16.85 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
