Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 16.75 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 44.05 | 22.45 – 43.45 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 3.19 – 22.65 | 3.43 – 21.57 |
| Annual precipitation | 8.48 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 1926.5 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 197.44 | 27.5 – 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 | 5.77 – 23.83 | 6.7 – 21.27 |
| Clay | % | 11.68 – 34.83 | 15.9 – 32.95 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.73 – 12.79 | 5.05 – 11.62 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.3 – 1.44 | 0.35 – 1.29 |
| pH | — | 6.24 – 6.93 | 6.5 – 6.7 |
| Sand | % | 40.97 – 80.11 | 44.38 – 76.8 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.4 – 16.86 | 3.6 – 13.7 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
