Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -0.99 – 28.39 | 8.61 – 28.25 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 11.37 – 40.85 | 16.27 – 39.89 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -18.69 – 25.17 | -7.05 – 24.57 |
| Annual precipitation | 464.26 – 5884.7 | 586.18 – 4805.3 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 7.1 – 140.54 | 7.64 – 128.36 |
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 | 16.65 – 27.02 | 18.68 – 23.1 |
| Clay | % | 29.02 – 38.52 | 31.6 – 35.67 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 8.57 – 15.47 | 10.2 – 13.1 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.23 – 5.68 | 2.81 – 3.79 |
| pH | — | 4.8 – 5.5 | 4.92 – 5.2 |
| Sand | % | 22.12 – 31.2 | 26.32 – 29.48 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 36.55 – 81.05 | 43.35 – 66.83 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
