Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.21 – 28.23 | 15.81 – 27.51 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 24.23 – 34.87 | 25.31 – 34.47 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 2.47 – 21.65 | 3.31 – 21.15 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 1881.56 | 95.22 – 1848.56 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 123.14 | 27.5 – 121.26 |
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 – 12.88 | 9.38 – 11.2 |
| Clay | % | 6.41 – 16.8 | 7.67 – 15.28 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.75 – 10.96 | 4.42 – 6.9 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.48 – 0.7 | 0.52 – 0.62 |
| pH | — | 5.6 – 7.59 | 6.33 – 7.3 |
| Sand | % | 66.9 – 87.98 | 68.1 – 85.83 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.21 – 9.98 | 3.7 – 7.5 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
