Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.73 | 17.07 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 44.05 | 22.45 – 43.45 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.25 – 21.65 | 6.33 – 21.15 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 2252.88 | 53.98 – 1857.42 |
| 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 | 18.1 – 23.95 | 19.62 – 21.68 |
| Clay | % | 28.3 – 37.2 | 31.5 – 35.98 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5.2 – 11.22 | 5.7 – 8.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.5 – 4.13 | 2.71 – 3.35 |
| pH | — | 5.3 – 5.9 | 5.6 – 5.7 |
| Sand | % | 34.4 – 41.7 | 36 – 39.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 28.1 – 54.7 | 34.17 – 49.62 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
