Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 17.07 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 40.75 | 22.45 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.03 – 22.09 | 10.01 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 51.1 – 1881.56 | 53.98 – 1848.56 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 151.62 | 27.5 – 133.5 |
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 | 18.1 – 33.5 | 20.4 – 23.6 |
| Clay | % | 30.4 – 40.1 | 32 – 37 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5 – 17.4 | 6.1 – 9.2 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.94 – 3.87 | 2.09 – 2.83 |
| pH | — | 5.5 – 6.3 | 5.7 – 6.2 |
| Sand | % | 31.9 – 42.8 | 34.3 – 36 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 22.1 – 55.9 | 24.1 – 38.3 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
