Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 14.45 – 22.03 | 15.19 – 21.13 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 25.43 – 34.95 | 28.01 – 34.59 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -1.85 – 7.41 | -1.19 – 6.83 |
| Annual precipitation | 265.22 – 1915.64 | 301.94 – 1788.38 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 8.76 – 101.86 | 11.04 – 96.46 |
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 | 7.38 – 21.8 | 10.18 – 15.93 |
| Clay | % | 14.38 – 38.5 | 20.35 – 30.12 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.2 – 16.7 | 0.6 – 7.55 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.83 – 2.54 | 1.07 – 1.66 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 6.5 | — – — |
| Sand | % | 12.89 – 50.01 | 24.95 – 43.55 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 11.01 – 37.88 | 13.1 – 21.55 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
