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 – 42.29 | 25.01 – 40.79 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.19 – 22.09 | 6.27 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 1652.58 | 64.48 – 1410.3 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 45.7 – 180.92 | 50.9 – 165.44 |
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 | 7 – 13.4 | 8.8 – 11.7 |
| Clay | % | 6.7 – 15.5 | 7.1 – 9.9 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.2 – 9.3 | 3.5 – 5.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.51 – 0.82 | 0.53 – 0.63 |
| pH | — | 5.9 – 7.2 | 6.1 – 7 |
| Sand | % | 68 – 88.5 | 79.8 – 88.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.3 – 8 | 3.6 – 6.6 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
