Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.23 – 28.39 | 12.37 – 28.25 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 15.37 – 37.63 | 16.27 – 37.15 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -2.59 – 23.85 | -0.79 – 23.09 |
| Annual precipitation | 349.2 – 5884.7 | 373.44 – 4805.3 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 10.98 – 120.74 | 13.9 – 109.88 |
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 | 5.78 – 20.38 | 10.97 – 15.18 |
| Clay | % | 16.7 – 29.43 | 20.95 – 25.15 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.42 – 9.07 | 4.65 – 6.55 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.77 – 1.94 | 0.95 – 1.63 |
| pH | — | 5.03 – 5.84 | 5.47 – 5.6 |
| Sand | % | 46.95 – 75.15 | 53.67 – 61.73 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 12.32 – 39.15 | 14.32 – 29.32 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
