Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 16.75 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 41.31 | 22.45 – 41.25 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 3.19 – 22.23 | 3.43 – 21.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 1858.06 | 13.28 – 1480.78 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 33.4 – 197.44 | 39.94 – 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 | 6.79 – 24.18 | 12.05 – 23.82 |
| Clay | % | 14.3 – 36.6 | 17.52 – 35.3 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.23 – 12.99 | 7.03 – 12.15 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.51 – 1.58 | 0.69 – 1.46 |
| pH | — | 4.5 – 8 | 5 – 7 |
| Sand | % | 40.8 – 73.42 | 41.3 – 66.9 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 7.23 – 19.39 | 8.93 – 16.8 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
