Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.43 – 29.57 | 15.75 – 28.91 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 30.63 – 44.05 | 31.99 – 43.69 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -8.93 – 18.63 | -2.87 – 15.49 |
| Annual precipitation | 23 – 600.76 | 25.7 – 415.48 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 46.86 – 126.94 | 72.54 – 124.12 |
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 | 4.14 – 35.4 | 5.45 – 23.65 |
| Clay | % | 9.45 – 48.78 | 12.57 – 40.85 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.71 – 36.38 | 5.45 – 32.38 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.21 – 4.12 | 0.4 – 1.42 |
| pH | — | 7.4 – 8.3 | 7.7 – 8.2 |
| Sand | % | 9.84 – 70.25 | 18.2 – 60.35 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 0.32 – 15.78 | 1 – 8.28 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
