Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 12.33 – 28.47 | 13.71 – 27.87 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.71 – 39.87 | 21.85 – 38.67 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 2.37 – 24.43 | 3.63 – 24.01 |
| Annual precipitation | 130.7 – 5806.72 | 152.54 – 5214.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 20.36 – 116.32 | 31.94 – 110.54 |
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 | 7.68 – 38.3 | 13.6 – 28.85 |
| Clay | % | 7.58 – 54.28 | 15.28 – 50.02 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 4.35 – 27.38 | 6 – 22.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.35 – 8.27 | 0.64 – 5.41 |
| pH | — | 5 – 8.4 | 5.25 – 8.2 |
| Sand | % | 22.46 – 76.8 | 27 – 63.88 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 98.35 | 4.5 – 61.15 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
