Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -2.57 – 27.99 | 0.73 – 27.75 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 17.53 – 45.51 | 20.23 – 45.27 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -22.23 – 13.05 | -19.89 – 12.69 |
| Annual precipitation | 23 – 1454.76 | 25.7 – 1008.24 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 51.04 – 141.08 | 62.62 – 124.12 |
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 | 16.97 – 19.9 | 18.35 – 19.2 |
| Clay | % | 23.71 – 28.31 | 24.93 – 25.35 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 10.57 – 17.07 | 11.93 – 13.85 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.69 – 1.26 | 0.72 – 0.85 |
| pH | — | 7.9 – 8 | 8 – 8 |
| Sand | % | 36.47 – 43.3 | 41.5 – 42.27 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.46 – 3.9 | 2.8 – 3.9 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
