Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 13.53 – 27.91 | 14.85 – 27.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.05 – 36.43 | 22.09 – 36.01 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -0.43 – 24.41 | 0.17 – 24.35 |
| Annual precipitation | 265.22 – 4768.34 | 301.94 – 3328.64 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 8.76 – 112.34 | 11.04 – 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 | 12.3 – 36.33 | 19.5 – 27.82 |
| Clay | % | 4.53 – 51.42 | 23.07 – 40.3 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.38 – 15.05 | 3.8 – 11.05 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.96 – 13.14 | 2.62 – 7.11 |
| pH | — | 5.7 – 8.8 | — – — |
| Sand | % | 18.18 – 90.4 | 28.3 – 50.9 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 9.98 – 111.1 | 24.4 – 72 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
