Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 7.01 – 30.45 | 8.81 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.51 – 40.75 | 19.71 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -7.67 – 21.65 | -4.61 – 20.69 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 2252.88 | 53.98 – 1857.42 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 27.28 – 180.92 | 39.94 – 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 | 7.35 – 22.8 | 12.2 – 18.15 |
| Clay | % | 17.95 – 40 | 22.75 – 34.1 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3 – 12.65 | 4.5 – 8.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.97 – 2.72 | 1.21 – 1.9 |
| pH | — | 5.3 – 6.75 | 5.5 – 6.1 |
| Sand | % | 33.15 – 70.3 | 44.05 – 62.45 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 10.4 – 34.78 | 15.38 – 24.23 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
