Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -13.27 – 29.17 | -9.61 – 28.63 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 7.23 – 40.85 | 9.57 – 39.89 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -31.61 – 23.85 | -30.77 – 22.11 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 5802.76 | 64.48 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 180.92 | 27.5 – 165.44 |
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 | 4.61 – 43.99 | 6 – 37.45 |
| Clay | % | 11 – 48.68 | 13.6 – 40.55 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 36 | 1.45 – 31.2 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.45 – 19 | 0.54 – 7.65 |
| pH | — | 4.5 – 8.6 | 4.72 – 8.2 |
| Sand | % | 15.2 – 82.79 | 21.1 – 80.17 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.2 – 117.6 | 3.7 – 71.05 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
