Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -2.57 – 29.57 | 0.73 – 28.91 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 17.53 – 45.51 | 20.23 – 45.27 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -22.23 – 21.09 | -19.89 – 19.95 |
| Annual precipitation | 1.24 – 1470.62 | 1.72 – 1294.58 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 51.04 – 180.92 | 62.62 – 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 | 9.95 – 14.4 | 11.82 – 14.4 |
| Clay | % | 15.9 – 19.95 | 16.35 – 18.65 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 11.84 – 29.14 | 18.32 – 27 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.73 – 3.64 | 1.03 – 3.17 |
| pH | — | 7.9 – 8.1 | 7.9 – 8.1 |
| Sand | % | 47.4 – 53.23 | 47.77 – 52.05 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.94 – 11.8 | 3.9 – 9.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
