Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 18.49 – 29.57 | 19.53 – 29.21 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 25.87 – 43.85 | 28.03 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.11 – 22.87 | 5.77 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 2783.44 |
| 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 | 6.93 – 17.94 | 8.7 – 12.7 |
| Clay | % | 14.62 – 32.47 | 18.6 – 26.1 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.85 – 22.91 | 10.32 – 16.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.63 – 2.36 | 0.85 – 1.36 |
| pH | — | 5.5 – 6.5 | 5.9 – 6.2 |
| Sand | % | 38.36 – 67.47 | 48.98 – 60.3 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 7.92 – 28.54 | 9.6 – 15 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
