Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 14.19 – 30.45 | 17.47 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 22.91 – 40.75 | 25.01 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 1.05 – 22.79 | 8.49 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 3189.98 | 64.48 – 2291.18 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 45.7 – 180.92 | 50.9 – 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 | 7.62 – 41.99 | 9.95 – 35.67 |
| Clay | % | 15.02 – 48.68 | 18.2 – 38.42 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.74 – 33.99 | 3.1 – 29.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.45 – 5.32 | 0.54 – 2.6 |
| pH | — | 5.11 – 8.38 | 5.45 – 8.12 |
| Sand | % | 17.96 – 80 | 29.1 – 72.55 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.2 – 44.24 | 3.7 – 29.3 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
