Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.73 | 17.47 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 22.91 – 44.05 | 25.01 – 43.45 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -0.41 – 22.09 | 3.73 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 1.24 – 1596.62 | 1.72 – 1376.46 |
| 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 | 21.5 – 24.84 | 21.8 – 22.32 |
| Clay | % | 28 – 35.88 | 30.73 – 34.15 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 8.29 – 13.13 | 8.5 – 10.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.18 – 1.61 | 1.2 – 1.33 |
| pH | — | 6.5 – 7.16 | 6.53 – 7.1 |
| Sand | % | 42.93 – 48.27 | 43.8 – 46.83 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 12.24 – 16.98 | 13.3 – 14.35 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
