Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 17.07 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 40.75 | 22.45 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.03 – 21.65 | 9.97 – 21.15 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 2252.88 | 64.48 – 1857.42 |
| 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 | 8 – 42.6 | 12.1 – 29.7 |
| Clay | % | 26.8 – 47.7 | 33.1 – 40.3 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.4 – 22.5 | 6.7 – 14.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.34 – 3.61 | 1.67 – 2.47 |
| pH | — | 5.2 – 7.3 | 5.4 – 6.1 |
| Sand | % | 18.1 – 54.2 | 28.3 – 41.6 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 16.68 – 44.52 | 22 – 34.3 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
