Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 22.45 – 29.91 | 23.29 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 30.79 – 43.85 | 31.99 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 6.59 – 22.87 | 8.03 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 8.48 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 2783.44 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 50.64 – 197.44 | 53.4 – 184.48 |
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 | 6.15 – 11.54 | 8.7 – 10.38 |
| Clay | % | 15.61 – 23.91 | 19.45 – 21.02 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 7 – 21.1 | 7.62 – 17.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.63 – 1.14 | 0.66 – 0.85 |
| pH | — | 5.99 – 6.71 | 6.2 – 6.6 |
| Sand | % | 46.3 – 62.26 | 57.1 – 59.8 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 8 – 13.79 | 8.7 – 10.35 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
