Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 18.49 – 28.71 | 19.53 – 28.17 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 25.87 – 38.79 | 28.03 – 37.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.05 – 22.65 | 8.11 – 21.57 |
| Annual precipitation | 539.64 – 3643.82 | 556.26 – 2217.54 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 123.14 | 27.5 – 121.26 |
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 | 4.61 – 25.79 | 5.55 – 17.45 |
| Clay | % | 7.6 – 46.04 | 9.4 – 41.9 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 20.59 | 1.45 – 15.8 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.46 – 6.97 | 0.63 – 3.4 |
| pH | — | 4.4 – 7.17 | 4.7 – 6.7 |
| Sand | % | 33.96 – 86.89 | 39.15 – 83.38 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 4.5 – 45.2 | 5.3 – 35.38 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
