Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 3.89 – 23.51 | 4.19 – 22.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 24.35 – 34.89 | 24.35 – 34.59 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -17.59 – 13.49 | -16.81 – 13.01 |
| Annual precipitation | 456.14 – 1915.64 | 557.48 – 1788.38 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 8.76 – 64.28 | 11.04 – 56.72 |
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 | 7.2 – 23.4 | 12.6 – 19.5 |
| Clay | % | 4.2 – 54.8 | 25.4 – 50.5 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.2 – 1.1 | 0.2 – 0.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.28 – 7.01 | 2.21 – 3.78 |
| pH | — | 5 – 8 | 5 – 5.3 |
| Sand | % | 5.1 – 87.3 | 9 – 43.4 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 12.2 – 44.1 | 16.1 – 37 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
