Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 13.41 – 30.45 | 15.81 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 43.85 | 22.45 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 1.05 – 22.65 | 2.01 – 21.57 |
| Annual precipitation | 8.48 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 2783.44 |
| 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 | 8.72 – 32.54 | 12.8 – 19.1 |
| Clay | % | 19.02 – 40.9 | 23.7 – 32.5 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.5 – 14.46 | 5.1 – 9.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.66 – 2.34 | 1.02 – 1.9 |
| pH | — | 5.5 – 7.2 | 5.8 – 6.4 |
| Sand | % | 30.92 – 66.76 | 42.3 – 57.7 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 7.38 – 35.64 | 11.6 – 23.95 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
