Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.73 | 17.47 – 29.65 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 22.91 – 44.05 | 25.01 – 43.45 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.25 – 22.09 | 6.33 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 1596.62 | 13.28 – 1037.24 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 45.7 – 197.44 | 62.72 – 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 | 7.62 – 41.99 | 9.95 – 35.67 |
| Clay | % | 11.31 – 48.68 | 12.57 – 38.42 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.74 – 35.72 | 3.1 – 32.95 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.44 – 5.76 | 0.54 – 2.52 |
| pH | — | 5.11 – 8.38 | 5.45 – 8.2 |
| Sand | % | 21.14 – 80 | 29.1 – 72.55 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.12 – 44.24 | 2.9 – 25.6 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
