Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -16.29 – 28.47 | -14.07 – 27.87 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 7.23 – 43.39 | 9.57 – 41.71 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -43.61 – 24.43 | -42.05 – 24.01 |
| Annual precipitation | 130.7 – 5806.72 | 152.54 – 5214.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 6.8 – 141.52 | 7.22 – 137.44 |
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 | 7.2 – 27.1 | 8.55 – 20.77 |
| Clay | % | 11.85 – 27.8 | 16.82 – 22.43 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.45 – 17.7 | 2.23 – 11.07 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.95 – 4.97 | 1.21 – 3.95 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 5.8 | 4.9 – 5.2 |
| Sand | % | 30.68 – 57.1 | 40.1 – 52.42 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 12.25 – 80.42 | 16.4 – 54.98 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
