Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -2.57 – 30.45 | 0.73 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 17.53 – 44.05 | 20.23 – 43.69 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -22.23 – 22.09 | -19.89 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 2359.82 | 13.28 – 1944.14 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 33.4 – 197.44 | 39.94 – 184.48 |
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 | 4.14 – 43.99 | 5.45 – 37.45 |
| Clay | % | 9.45 – 48.68 | 12.57 – 40.55 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.75 – 34.07 | 1.45 – 30.5 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.21 – 4.12 | 0.41 – 3.07 |
| pH | — | 4.93 – 8.38 | 5.38 – 8.2 |
| Sand | % | 18.34 – 82.56 | 27.45 – 77.42 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 0.32 – 47.09 | 1 – 32.05 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
