Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 5.03 – 27.91 | 11.51 – 27.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 10.21 – 36.43 | 15.73 – 36.01 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -1.33 – 24.43 | 6.43 – 24.01 |
| Annual precipitation | 503.74 – 5806.72 | 595.84 – 5214.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 14.16 – 112.34 | 15.42 – 110.54 |
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 | 11.2 – 18.6 | 14.2 – 18.05 |
| Clay | % | 25.3 – 39.72 | 26.7 – 30.15 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 18 | 2.1 – 11.55 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.46 – 5.52 | 1.57 – 4 |
| pH | — | 4.4 – 6 | 4.9 – 5.3 |
| Sand | % | 29.83 – 52.5 | 39.7 – 44.55 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 22.23 – 90.89 | 43.5 – 64.8 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
