Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.23 – 27.03 | 12.37 – 26.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 15.37 – 40.11 | 16.27 – 39.63 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.53 – 25.17 | 6.31 – 24.57 |
| Annual precipitation | 247.08 – 5677.46 | 262.56 – 4163.06 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 7.1 – 120.84 | 7.64 – 119.52 |
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 | 10.68 – 35 | 13.7 – 33.4 |
| Clay | % | 17.5 – 42.9 | 24.23 – 40.75 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5.12 – 11.06 | 7.9 – 9.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.31 – 4.11 | 2.44 – 2.98 |
| pH | — | 4.83 – 5.67 | 5.15 – 5.6 |
| Sand | % | 23.98 – 59.76 | 25.6 – 51.85 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 24.95 – 56.12 | 36.83 – 51.4 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
