Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 28.71 | 17.47 – 28.17 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 38.79 | 21.85 – 37.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.03 – 22.89 | 9.97 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 320.76 – 4960.86 | 455.04 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 123.14 | 27.5 – 110.6 |
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 | 8.05 – 14.7 | 11.32 – 13.3 |
| Clay | % | 17.7 – 29.32 | 23.43 – 26.5 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 13.8 – 35.62 | 17.18 – 22.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.15 – 1.8 | 1.19 – 1.5 |
| pH | — | 4.9 – 6.4 | 5.3 – 6.3 |
| Sand | % | 49.08 – 61.7 | 49.88 – 54.73 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 12.53 – 27.7 | 14.62 – 21.82 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
