Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -1.63 – 24.41 | 1.85 – 23.87 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 17.61 – 41.65 | 21.25 – 38.67 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -18.63 – 12.31 | -15.93 – 10.03 |
| Annual precipitation | 130.7 – 2565.68 | 152.54 – 1761.08 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 12.48 – 116.32 | 18.94 – 103.72 |
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 | 12.9 – 28.15 | 17.75 – 24.65 |
| Clay | % | 12.7 – 28.75 | 17.45 – 22.8 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 12.65 – 30.55 | 19.1 – 25 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.95 – 3.11 | 1.59 – 2.54 |
| pH | — | 5.5 – 8.7 | 6.5 – 7.15 |
| Sand | % | 30.5 – 61.75 | 37.4 – 50.65 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 9.65 – 43.7 | 22.3 – 33.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
