Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.21 – 30.45 | 15.81 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 43.85 | 22.45 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 2.47 – 22.87 | 3.31 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 8.48 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 2192.5 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 197.44 | 27.5 – 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 | 6.21 – 13.2 | 7.35 – 10.8 |
| Clay | % | 6.6 – 27.99 | 10.1 – 19.2 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.72 – 19.5 | 4.2 – 11 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.46 – 0.92 | 0.52 – 0.69 |
| pH | — | 5.7 – 7.6 | 6 – 6.9 |
| Sand | % | 43.44 – 87.69 | 57.7 – 82.97 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.2 – 13.05 | 3.7 – 9.28 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
