Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.21 – 30.45 | 15.81 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 22.91 – 41.31 | 25.01 – 41.25 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 2.47 – 22.65 | 3.31 – 21.67 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 1926.5 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 30.22 – 197.44 | 33.52 – 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 | 4.61 – 41.99 | 5.5 – 35.67 |
| Clay | % | 5.21 – 48.68 | 7.97 – 38.42 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.75 – 33.99 | 1.45 – 29.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.36 – 6.97 | 0.4 – 3.4 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 8.88 | 4.78 – 8.7 |
| Sand | % | 20.91 – 88.73 | 29.1 – 84.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 45.27 | 3.35 – 30.35 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
