Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 7.01 – 30.45 | 8.81 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.51 – 40.75 | 19.71 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -7.67 – 22.89 | -4.61 – 21.99 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 4960.86 | 64.48 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 180.92 | 27.5 – 165.44 |
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 | 18.4 – 27.18 | 20.3 – 23.8 |
| Clay | % | 25.27 – 37.2 | 31.12 – 36.25 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5.3 – 15.72 | 5.7 – 9.8 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.23 – 4.6 | 2.72 – 3.53 |
| pH | — | 5.33 – 5.9 | 5.6 – 5.7 |
| Sand | % | 34.23 – 41.7 | 36.5 – 39.2 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 18.02 – 84.92 | 34.1 – 48.92 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
