Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.65 – 28.71 | 18.23 – 28.17 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.81 – 38.79 | 21.45 – 37.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.05 – 22.93 | 8.11 – 21.91 |
| Annual precipitation | 406.1 – 3643.82 | 478.58 – 2217.54 |
| 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 | 4.61 – 29.36 | 6 – 23.15 |
| Clay | % | 12.31 – 46.04 | 15.5 – 41.9 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 20.59 | 1.45 – 15.8 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.46 – 6.97 | 0.63 – 3.54 |
| pH | — | 4.4 – 8.09 | 4.7 – 7.8 |
| Sand | % | 27.83 – 82.79 | 33.38 – 80.17 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 6.32 – 56.76 | 7.95 – 52.48 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
