Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -7.63 – 28.39 | -5.59 – 28.25 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 9.41 – 40.85 | 10.31 – 39.89 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -25.85 – 25.17 | -24.47 – 24.51 |
| Annual precipitation | 358.9 – 5802.76 | 418.24 – 4182.52 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 15.54 – 141.52 | 18.84 – 137.44 |
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 | 11.78 – 27.52 | 15.3 – 22.7 |
| Clay | % | 28.4 – 44.42 | 33.9 – 39.3 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.96 – 19.82 | 6 – 13.1 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.88 – 4.98 | 2.39 – 3.74 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 5.72 | 5 – 5.3 |
| Sand | % | 24.18 – 43.82 | 30.3 – 35.9 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 27.04 – 173.71 | 36.45 – 75.85 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
