Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 12.33 – 27.91 | 13.71 – 27.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.71 – 36.43 | 21.85 – 36.01 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 2.37 – 23.03 | 3.63 – 22.85 |
| Annual precipitation | 726.14 – 5806.72 | 744.26 – 5214.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 20.36 – 112.34 | 31.94 – 110.54 |
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 | 7.68 – 32.93 | 9.97 – 28.73 |
| Clay | % | 18.54 – 54.28 | 20.3 – 50.02 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.39 – 24.27 | 6 – 22.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.35 – 8.27 | 1.59 – 5.41 |
| pH | — | 4.2 – 7.6 | 4.6 – 7.3 |
| Sand | % | 22.46 – 60.2 | 27 – 52.8 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 13.52 – 100.5 | 17.65 – 61.15 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
