Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -0.23 – 28.39 | 8.83 – 28.25 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 12.45 – 43.39 | 18.63 – 41.71 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -18.69 – 23.85 | -7.05 – 21.77 |
| Annual precipitation | 134.24 – 4437.78 | 157.16 – 4355.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 42.48 – 141.08 | 49.26 – 128.36 |
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 | 9.21 – 43.99 | 10.55 – 37.45 |
| Clay | % | 15.12 – 45.83 | 18.65 – 40.55 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.5 – 30.24 | 5.35 – 22.05 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.46 – 11.57 | 0.59 – 5.25 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 8.3 | 4.9 – 8.1 |
| Sand | % | 15.2 – 60.34 | 21.1 – 50.8 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 1.8 – 117.6 | 3.85 – 64.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
