Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 22.45 – 28.71 | 23.29 – 28.17 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 30.25 – 38.79 | 30.55 – 37.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 14.29 – 22.87 | 16.63 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 694.24 – 3643.82 | 982.12 – 2783.44 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 47.9 – 131.36 | 53.4 – 131 |
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 | 5.71 – 39.86 | 7.25 – 28.9 |
| Clay | % | 12.31 – 41.1 | 15.55 – 36.75 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 6.21 – 28.91 | 9.2 – 25.3 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.46 – 11.22 | 0.63 – 5.05 |
| pH | — | 4.9 – 6.7 | 4.97 – 6.2 |
| Sand | % | 33.96 – 71.47 | 39.15 – 65.05 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 6.32 – 90.21 | 7.95 – 53.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
