Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 16.43 – 28.71 | 18.65 – 28.17 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 38.79 | 21.85 – 37.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 13.51 – 22.89 | 16.09 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 694.24 – 4960.86 | 982.12 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 118.58 | 27.5 – 107.12 |
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 | 7.76 – 29.78 | 10 – 15.3 |
| Clay | % | 15.8 – 43.48 | 22.1 – 34.3 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.52 – 28.22 | 5.2 – 15.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.18 – 7.97 | 1.51 – 2.34 |
| pH | — | 4.6 – 5.9 | 4.9 – 5.5 |
| Sand | % | 37.42 – 70.92 | 47.8 – 61.5 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 17.89 – 48.02 | 20.68 – 30.85 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
