Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 9.97 – 28.39 | 12.37 – 27.49 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 15.37 – 36.47 | 16.27 – 35.93 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 0.11 – 23.75 | 4.79 – 23.09 |
| Annual precipitation | 464.26 – 5677.46 | 586.18 – 4355.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 7.1 – 120.74 | 7.64 – 109.88 |
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 | 8.91 – 27.23 | 12.9 – 19.85 |
| Clay | % | 18.43 – 43.73 | 24 – 34.2 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5.17 – 13.25 | 6.6 – 10.45 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.85 – 3.46 | 1.39 – 2.61 |
| pH | — | 5 – 6 | 5.3 – 5.5 |
| Sand | % | 27.78 – 65.8 | 34.05 – 54.25 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 14.47 – 63.86 | 24.4 – 40.85 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
