Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 13.41 – 25.57 | 14.77 – 25.09 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 24.23 – 34.87 | 25.31 – 34.21 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -0.91 – 16.71 | -0.01 – 15.63 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 1652.58 | 95.22 – 1410.3 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 27.28 – 123.14 | 41.44 – 119.12 |
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 | 8.5 – 22.5 | 12.5 – 18.2 |
| Clay | % | 7.45 – 32 | 12.03 – 24.98 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.4 – 28.5 | 4.72 – 18.68 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.49 – 1.76 | 0.61 – 1.09 |
| pH | — | 5.8 – 8.76 | 6.5 – 8.1 |
| Sand | % | 45.39 – 79.91 | 57.73 – 72.92 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.1 – 25.78 | 4.3 – 12.2 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
