Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 16.57 – 29.17 | 18.19 – 28.63 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 23.79 – 40.33 | 25.47 – 39.75 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.11 – 22.87 | 5.77 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 3643.82 | 64.48 – 2192.5 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 180.92 | 27.5 – 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 | 4.61 – 39.86 | 5.5 – 28.9 |
| Clay | % | 5.21 – 48.68 | 7.97 – 36.75 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 28.91 | 1.45 – 24.02 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.4 – 11.22 | 0.47 – 5.05 |
| pH | — | 4.5 – 8.88 | 4.78 – 8.7 |
| Sand | % | 21.16 – 88.73 | 36.65 – 84.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 90.21 | 3.35 – 53.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
