Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 2.17 – 28.47 | 9.79 – 27.87 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 10.21 – 39.87 | 15.73 – 38.67 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -10.03 – 24.43 | -2.23 – 24.01 |
| Annual precipitation | 130.7 – 5806.72 | 152.54 – 5214.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 11.16 – 116.32 | 12.2 – 110.54 |
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 | 7.01 – 23.1 | 17.6 – 21.8 |
| Clay | % | 8.1 – 54 | 43.5 – 51.2 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 11.9 | 6.2 – 9 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.55 – 4.14 | 2.52 – 3.29 |
| pH | — | 4.8 – 5.3 | 4.9 – 5.1 |
| Sand | % | 14.5 – 81.78 | 16.7 – 19.9 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 14.8 – 70.1 | 26.8 – 52.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
