Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 7.01 – 27.01 | 8.81 – 26.23 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.51 – 36.97 | 19.71 – 36.07 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -7.67 – 22.05 | -4.61 – 21.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 1881.56 | 95.22 – 1848.56 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 123.14 | 27.5 – 121.26 |
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 – 25.79 | 5.5 – 21.9 |
| Clay | % | 5.21 – 42.97 | 7.97 – 37.23 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 28.7 | 1.45 – 23.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.43 – 2.89 | 0.49 – 2.35 |
| pH | — | 4.5 – 8.88 | 4.78 – 8.7 |
| Sand | % | 35.83 – 88.73 | 42.12 – 84.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 40.83 | 3.35 – 31.02 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
