Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 10.97 – 23.51 | 12.23 – 22.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 26.71 – 34.89 | 28.57 – 34.59 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -5.51 – 13.49 | -4.79 – 13.01 |
| Annual precipitation | 456.14 – 1915.64 | 557.48 – 1788.38 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 8.76 – 64.28 | 11.04 – 56.72 |
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 | 7.16 – 23.34 | 8.7 – 14.4 |
| Clay | % | 10.4 – 37.82 | 15.6 – 25.9 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.18 – 10.14 | 0.5 – 4.5 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.75 – 4.24 | 0.98 – 1.48 |
| pH | — | 4.6 – 7.1 | — – — |
| Sand | % | 7.06 – 66.2 | 24.6 – 48.5 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 10.38 – 41.38 | 12.6 – 18.2 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
