Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -0.99 – 29.91 | 8.61 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 11.37 – 40.91 | 17.61 – 40.37 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -18.27 – 23.85 | -5.79 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 5802.76 | 64.48 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 180.92 | 24.98 – 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 | 21.7 – 35 | 22.4 – 25.6 |
| Clay | % | 33.72 – 40.7 | 36.3 – 37.8 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 4.56 – 9.42 | 5.8 – 7.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.44 – 3.6 | 2.79 – 3.39 |
| pH | — | 5.4 – 5.9 | 5.5 – 5.8 |
| Sand | % | 25.6 – 38.9 | 34.1 – 37.3 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 33.66 – 52.04 | 40.7 – 47.3 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
