Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 17.47 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 22.91 – 40.75 | 25.01 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.03 – 22.09 | 10.01 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 51.1 – 1606.04 | 53.98 – 1376.46 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 33.4 – 151.62 | 39.94 – 133.5 |
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 | 18.9 – 24.35 | 20.3 – 21.3 |
| Clay | % | 28 – 37.5 | 32.95 – 36.9 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5.6 – 13.54 | 6.3 – 10.55 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.3 – 4.84 | 2.72 – 4.13 |
| pH | — | 5.2 – 5.79 | 5.5 – 5.6 |
| Sand | % | 33.5 – 40.4 | 34.7 – 37.8 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 27.78 – 63 | 35.7 – 50.7 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
